Student nominated to academy

Mikkie Scott, a student at Green River High School, was nominated for an appointment to the U.S. Air Force Academy Monday.

“Wyoming has a proud history of nominating some of our best and brightest students to attend our nation’s military academies,” Barrasso said. 

“Mikkie is hard-working, highly motivated, and has shown she possesses the characteristics necessary to succeed,” he said.” It’s an honor to nominate her, and I am confident that if she is offered an appointment, she will represent Wyoming well.”
