Trevor Smith was honored for reaching that goal on Thursday when Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller joined Vermillion County Republican Party Chairman Tim Yokum for a surprise presentation to the high school social studies teacher.

“In recognition of your efforts in promoting the importance of government to your students at North Vermillion High School” reads the plaque presented by Yokum.
