Fifth graders from one Penn Yan school got the opportunity to meet their state senator in Albany on Thursday.
Students from Saint Michael School ,along with teacher Keith Prather and a group of parents, got to meet with Senator Tom O’Mara outside the senate’s legislative chamber during a class field trip.
O’Mara said, “It’s always exciting to see students, and their parents and teachers, from back home and to have the opportunity to showcase our historic State Capitol. Thank you to Mr. Prather, his students, and their parents for an enjoyable visit. We’re always hopeful that young people will continue to have an interest in government throughout their lives and be inspired to be future leaders of our local communities, our state, and the nation.”
