Miss West Virginia USA reads to local elementary school students

LOOKOUT, WV (WVNS) — Divide Elementary School in Fayette County enjoyed a day fit for royalty as Miss West Virginia USA visited with the students on Monday, April 29, 2024.

Neveah Harmon spent the day reading to students and speaking with them about her life as Miss West Virginia USA.

Harmon is a Charleston native and pre-med student at Marshall University studying biochemistry, while also working as a certified pharmacy technician.

She came with an important message for students: you can do anything you set your mind to, even if it is your first time trying.

“I have never competed in pageants before this one, so it’s really cool to share that message that they can aspire to be anything they want to be if they have just a little bit of hard work and determination, they can always achieve their dreams,” said Harmon.

Harmon said her mission is to inspire women and girls to dream bigger, leading without fear.

She was crowned Miss West Virginia USA in June 2023.
