Governor Roy Cooper and Randy Lamont (RJ) Cummings.
Mr. Randy Lamont (R.J.) Cummings, a senior at Parrott Academy, recently completed a week as page to Governor Cooper. During the week, Mr. Cummings created a policy proposal for the Department of Environmental Quality. His proposal involved utilizing more of North Carolina’s environment to create more uses of renewable energy sources, such as wind turbines, hydroelectricity, and solar energy.
R.J. said the highlight of the trip was meeting Governor Cooper while the First Lady gave us a tour around the Governor’s Mansion. “I would recommend the program to anyone whether you are interested in politics or not because seeing what it takes to run a state is an amazing opportunity for anyone.”
