American Legion Boys State of Kansas has extended the deadline to register to Wednesday, June 30, 2021. (https://ksbstate.org/general/2021-deadline-extended/)
The 2021 ALBSK session will be held Sunday, August 1, through Saturday, August 7, at Kansas State University in Manhattan.
Traditionally, Kansas Boys State is for individuals who have completed their junior year of high school. With last year’s cancellation, the ALBSK program announced in January that it was expanding the pool of registrants for this year’s session to include those who have completed their senior year of high school (those who missed out on last year’s event due to the coronavirus pandemic), as well as individuals who have completed their sophomore year of high school.
Those wishing to attend the program should visit ksbstate.org to register. In addition, anyone can nominate individuals to attend Kansas Boys State by going to ksbstate.org and submitting the person’s name, mailing address, e-mail address, high school and phone number. You can also submit nominees for future years as well.

Are you looking to be added to one of our extra-curricular Flocknote groups? Awesome! Just go to our website and click on the Flocknote button from the home page. Still having trouble? Don’t worry! Jess will be happy to help you. You can email her at nicholsonj@OLLsmc.com.
