The American Legion Premier Boys State program has been teaching Americanism and citizenship processes to rising seniors since 1935. It gives these young men the opportunity to form their government leadership from the city, county, and state levels. In order to accomplish this, these citizens of Premier Boys State must campaign, give speeches, and articulate why they are the best candidate for their respective position. Premier Boys State gives out approximately $20,000 in scholarship awards every session through essays, interviews, orations, and application processes.
