During the spring semester, SLS clubs gather for a state conference to present bill drafts to their peers and have the opportunity to debate and vote on all bills.  

Using the Capitol setting as a “living classroom,” the student-led, student-driven program promotes awareness to the political process, creates a more politically astute  student body, and develops constructive solutions to issues that impact local  communities while engaging stakeholders in government. 

Throughout the year, participants meet weekly to sharpen their research skills, form  arguments for and against a solution, and practice public speaking skills. SLS clubs  also host elected officials and their staff to learn more about careers in public service  and the legislative process.
