Students at Whitehorse High School were recently recognized for finishing in the top ten in the nation in the Capitol Hill Challenge.
The financial education competition allows students to invest made-up funds in the stock market and Whitehorse High investors mustered one of the best finishes nationwide.
U.S. House District Three representative Mike Kennedy recognized the group on the congressional floor.
“Out of hundreds of teams from across the country this remarkable group finished in the top ten, a truly impressive accomplishment that speaks to their academic excellence and their strong grasp of financial markets, economics, and civic engagement.
“These students demonstrated exceptional teamwork, discipline, and a genuine passion for learning through the competition.”
