Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted also made a stop at Kenton High School on Friday to congratulate them on the success of their internship program through the pandemic. 25 students were placed into in-person internships this school year through the Wildcat Community Connectors Internship Program. On Friday, they received their certificates from the Lt. Governor. He then spoke on how to take control of their futures, especially with these experience under their belt. He says providing these opportunities to young students is crucial to their decision making, and it's becoming more popular around the state.
