Then special guest, Mayor Jere Wood talked to the children about the rich history of Roswell and some of our famous residents. "Does anybody know which Presidents' mother lived in Roswell?" he asked. "No , not Jimmy Carter - Teddy Roosevelt's mother Mittie Bullock!" Mayor wood delighted the children with stories from his own upbringing in Roswell then joined the kids for their PRIDE Cheer.

America's Legislators Back to School Program
Slated to "kick off" the third week of every September and run throughout the school year, the America's Legislators Back to School Program gives elected officials in all 50 states the opportunity to meet personally with their young constituents and to answer questions, share ideas, listen to concerns and impart a greater understanding of the legislative processes necessary for developing effective public policy and engaged citizens.

Sponsored by the National Conference of State Legislatures, the program is designed to teach young people--the nation's future voters and leaders--what it's like to be a state legislator: the processes, the pressures, and the debate, negotiation and compromise that are the very fabric of representative democracy. The program is emphasized as a bipartisan event. Legislators of both political parties are urged to participate in this national event and help bring civics to life for young people.
