Students take over
Taking over for Mayor Elden Kuehl (above) and taking the oath of office for sheriff (below) are two VHS students elected to one-day terms of office. Mayor-for-a-day Trent Albert reviews the city’s budget with Kuehl. Sheriff-for-a-day Todd Van Keppel is sworn in by Porter County Sheriff Tim McCarthy. Several VHS seniors will be serving in city and county offices today as part of Student Government Day sponsored by VHS government teachers and the Valparaiso Jaycees.
