The highly anticipated 2024 Miss Louisiana’s Teen Competition is set to take place from Friday, April 5 to Sunday, April 7, hosted at the prestigious Brown Auditorium on the University of Louisiana Monroe Campus. Noteworthy this year is the substantial increase in scholarships, totaling $15,000, underscoring the commitment to empower young women through education.
There will be 20 candidates from all over the state contending for the title of Miss Louisiana’s Teen. “Miss Louisiana’s Teen 2023, Laura Jane Kilpatrick, is set to crown her predecessor after a year of exceptional work in the community. Her platform, Leave Your Mark, has encouraged Louisiana residents to make positive impacts. Laura Jane states, “I want to encourage others to fell they are made for a purpose, and they need to use that purpose to leave their mark on others.” Laura represented the state well at the Miss America’s Teen Pageant in January and continues to be a role model to other young women.
