RMKS/1. THE PRESIDENTIAL CLASSROOM PROGRAM IS SOLICITING NOMINATIONS
FOR VOLUNTEER INSTRUCTORS FOR THE 2007 PROGRAM. THE PRESIDENTIAL
CLASSROOM IS A NON-PARTISAN, EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION THAT PROVIDES THE
NATION'S MOST PROMISING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO
PARTICIPATE IN A DYNAMIC STUDY OF AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AND CURRENT
ISSUES. THE PROGRAM RELIES ON VOLUNTEER INSTRUCTORS FROM GOVERNMENT
AGENCIES WHO CONTRIBUTE A FULL WEEK OF THEIR PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL
TIME TO THE EFFORT.
2. THE SELECTED INSTRUCTORS HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PROFESSIONAL
DEVELOPMENT AND A CHANCE TO ENHANCE LEADERSHIP SKILLS AS THEY HELP HIGH
SCHOOL STUDENTS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY EXPLORE THE INNER WORKINGS OF
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. INSTRUCTORS ALSO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK
CLOSELY WITH COLLEAGUES FROM OTHER FEDERAL AGENCIES AND DEVELOP
VALUABLE PROFESSIONAL CONTACTS OF THEIR OWN.
ESCORT OFFICERS INTERACT DIRECTLY WITH THE STUDENTS AND, AS THIS IS
OFTEN THE FIRST EXPOSURE TO THE MILITARY FOR MANY OF THE STUDENTS, MUST
EPITOMIZE NAVY CORE VALUES AND SERVE AS ROLE MODELS WITHIN THEIR
COMMUNITY. ESCORT OFFICERS MUST BE CAREER-ORIENTED, PRESENT EXEMPLARY
PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL APPEARANCE, BE FAMILIAR WITH THE ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE US GOVERNMENT, AND BE WELL VERSED IN FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT AND DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CURRENT EVENTS.

WEEKS. THE WEEKS FOR THE WINTER SESSION ARE 4 FEBRUARY THROUGH 31 MARCH
