Congressman Smith Visits Jefferson R-7 High School in Festus on Monday

Press Release

On Monday, Congressman Jason Smith brought Congress to the classroom, speaking with students at Jefferson R-7 High School in Festus. He met with civics classes and an anti-bullying student group.

"Unfortunately, the same technology that keeps us connected can be used to connect students to cyberbullying," said Congressman Smith. "The students in this anti-bullying group have a sense of community and are taking a stand to look out for each other. We could use more young people like them."

One of the youngest members of the House of Representatives, Congressman Smith connects with students during frequent "Congress in the Classroom" discussions, both in person and via video chat.
