Kettle Moraine Student Completes 2019 Senate Scholar Program

Madison, WI — Wisconsin State Sen. Chris Kapenga (R – Delafield) says Kettle Moraine High School student Jonathan Gulak, of Delafield, successfully completed the 2019 Senate Scholar Program.

High school juniors and seniors from around the State of Wisconsin participated in a week-long, intensive program at the State Capitol.

While in the program, Jonathan was introduced to many facets of the legislative process. He met
with legislative support agencies, legislative staff, the Governor’s staff, a Supreme Court Justice,
the media, lobbyists and University of Wisconsin-Madison faculty members.

Jonathan then put his knowledge into action. When the Senate was on the floor, he staffed the session under the direction of the Senate Sergeant at Arms’ office. The week’s events culminated in a Senate Scholar committee hearing on a bill that Jonathan helped draft.
