CHS Junior, Thomas Kaus Named to Youth Advisory Council

Thomas Kaus

Thomas Kaus of Chadron is one of 16 high school students selected by 3rd District Congressman Adrian Smith to serve on his Youth Advisory Council for the 2021-22 academic school year.

 Smith’s Youth Advisory Council is a forum for high school students to discuss opinions, thoughts, and concerns about local and federal issues with Smith throughout the school year through in-person meetings and other contacts.

   Serving on the Council also provides students with an opportunity for involvement and insight into their government and their communities.

The Council is open to students from sophomore through senior class. More information is at Smith’s website at AdrianSmith.house.gov/YouthAdvisoryCouncil.
