Approximately 400 students from 25 different schools within Mississippis Fourth Congressional District participated in the event. \r\nCongressman Steven Palazzos statement regarding todays event:  \r\nThese high school students are our future. Whether they decide to work in Congress, law enforcement, pursue a career in medicine, or take an entirely different path, the possibilities are endless for what they can accomplish for our State and Nation. Our job now is to prepare them as best as possible so they can be successful, well-rounded, and productive members of society. That is exactly why I started this leadership summit. I hope each student that attended today walked away more knowledgeable, encouraged, and inspired to be a leader today and in the future.\r\nThe students had the opportunity to hear fromand question guest speakers such as Chief of Marine Patrol Keith Davis, Miss Mississippi Hannah Roberts, and Governor Phil Bryant. \r\nChief Davis spoke to students about failure, urging them to never give upnever let a person, or event, or action allow you to give up. \r\nHannah Roberts talked about her journey to becoming Miss Mississippi and shared her best advice for success stating, Have goals that are bigger than what you think is possible. \r\nOur final speaker of the day, Governor Phil Bryant, shared a message about the true meaning of leadership using examples such as Mother Theresa to attest that leadership is not about power and influence. Upon the conclusion of the Governors speech a student expressed her gratitude to the Governor in front of the entire assembly stating, On behalf of my school Id like to say how much we truly appreciate your Christian values and that it means a lot to us that you voice them. \r\nThe participating students were selected by the teachers and administrators of their schools to attend todays summit. They are chosen based on a criteria of academic performance, community service, involvement in extracurricular activities, and the ability to overcome adversity. \r\nThe event also created quite a buzz on social media as students tweeted in questions for the speakers and competed for the best Instagram picture of the day, all of which was tagged using #palazzoleaders.\r\nA full list of attending schools can be found below:\r\nBiloxi High School  \r\nColumbia Academy  \r\nColumbia High School  \r\nD'Iberville High School  \r\nForrest County Agricultural High School  \r\nGautier High School  \r\nGeorge County High School  \r\nGulfport High School  \r\nHancock High School  \r\nHarrison Central High School  \r\nLamar Christian School  \r\nLaurel High School  \r\nLong Beach High School  \r\nNortheast Jones High School  \r\nOcean Springs High School  \r\nOur Lady Academy  \r\nPass Christian High School  \r\nPearl River Central High School  \r\nPetal High School  \r\nPicayune Memorial High School  \r\nSt. Martin High School  \r\nVancleave High School  \r\nWest Harrison High School  \r\nWest Jones High School  \r\nWest Marion High School", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["http://palazzo.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398715"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.1931341141462326, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
