Senior, Oliver Ripps shares this past weekend, Stuyvesant’s Junior State of America (JSA) chapter hosted a regional event with students from all over the Northeast. Students spent the day debating on a myriad of political issues facing our country. They also partook in activism campaigns including making blankets for underprivileged kids and registering voters for the upcoming midterms. A special shout-out to junior, Vishwaa Sofat for winning best speaker award at his first ever conference! Congratulations! Stuyvesant JSA members had a fun and informative time and are excited for their upcoming conference in Washington DC. (photo courtesy of Oliver)
