GREEN COVE SPRINGS- Clay County is giving local high school seniors a chance to step into the shoes of a county commissioner - literally.
The county is kicking off another Commissioner for a Day program, and five students will be selected to spend Tuesday, Sept. 22, shadowing District 1 Commissioner John Sgromolo for a full workday.
This opportunity gives students a real-world look at how local government runs - from public safety and emergency management to animal services, public works and more. Participants will follow Sgromolo through meetings with county leaders and site visits and learn how different departments and leaders work together to serve the community.
Students must complete an online application that includes basic information, along with a one-to-two-minute video answering the prompt: "What is your definition of leadership? What does great leadership look like in action?"
Those interested can access the application here. The application deadline is Sept. 4 and participants will be announced on Sept. 7.
