Lumpkin County High School student and Dawsonville resident Madison Coker recently attended a national leadership forum in Washington, D.C. Coker, 16, is a rising junior and was nominated for the program, Envision's National Youth Leadership Forum on Law and CSI, due to her interest in forensic science by her teachers at LCHS. The forum ran from July 9-13. "During this program I participated in many workshops that included forensic simulations, presentations by lawyers and college professors and problem-solving tasks," Coker said. "We [also] had the opportunity to visit George Mason University campus and learn more about college admissions."
