Teen Sponsorship
Teen Sponsorship is available for teens that will be moving to Edwards AFB.
The Teen Center will partner your teen up with someone of the same age, grade, gender, and with similar interests. Together they will tour the center, the school, the base, so they will have an immediate friend the minute you land. On the other hand, if you happened to be PCS’ing from Edwards, we can help there to. Tell us where you are going and we will contact their Teen Center so your son or daughter can correspond with someone who lives where you’re going.
The Congressional Award
The Congressional Award is the United States Congress’ award for young Americans. It is non-partisan, voluntary, and non-competitive. The program is open to all 14- to 23-year-olds; young people may register when they turn 13 1/2 years old and must complete their activities before their 24th birthday. Participants earn Bronze, Silver and Gold Congressional Award Certificates and Bronze, Silver and Gold Congressional Award Medals. Each level involves setting goals in four program areas; Volunteer Public Service, Personal Development, Physical Fitness, and Expedition/Exploration. Earning the Award is a fun and interesting way to get more involved in something you already enjoy or something you’d like to try for the first time. You move at your own pace – on your own or with your friends. This is not an award for past accomplishments. Instead, you are honored for achieving your own challenging goals after registering for the program.
Regardless of your situation, you can earn the Congressional Award. The Congressional Award has no minimum grade point average requirements. It accommodates young people with special needs or disabilities who are willing to take the challenge.
For more information about the Congressional Award see Mr. Paul or Call 275-TEEN.
