Congratulations to Abby Huffman, a Forest Hills Eastern High School student, for being selected for a prestigious six-month leadership development fellowship to learn about government and civics. In a press release written by the Bill of Rights Institute, the organization behind the fellowship said the following. Some of the most gifted civics students in America have been chosen for a highly competitive civic education and leadership development program with the Bill of Rights Institute. This year, just 20 students from across the United States were selected to participate in the Institute’s prestigious 2025 Student Fellowship program. This six-month educational opportunity helps high school students develop as leaders and cultivate skills for building civil society. The Bill of Rights Institute is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that develops industry-leading civics and history resources and programs for teachers and students nationwide. Through the Bill of Rights Institute Student Fellowship program, students take part in enriching educational programming throughout the school year, culminating in a week-long capstone experience in Washington, D.C.
