Each session will last 1.5 hours and cover topics including voting and elections, police and fire department services, potential career fields, community service, and more.
Applicants must be juniors or seniors in high school by January 4 and live in Bedford, Euless, or Hurst. Students do not need to attend HEB ISD to apply.
