Kellyanne Hurst selected for Congressional Classroom

Plant City High School’s Kellyanne Hurst was among the nine students selected by U.S. Rep. Dennis Ross last month, to tour Washington, D.C., as part of the Congressional Classroom.

The tour, which took place Sept. 14 to 18, included stops at the U.S. Capitol, Arlington Cemetery, the U.S. Supreme Court and the Pentagon. The students also met with Sen. Marco Rubio and Reps. Dennis Ross (FL-15), Daniel Webster (FL-10), Richard Nugent (FL-11), Ron DeSantis (FL-06), Ted Yoho (FL-03) and Steve Southerland (FL-02).

“It is really cool to see how the political process works in Washington, D.C.,” Hurst said. “There is a lot behind the scenes that goes into it that I would have never known.”
