Our 8th grade students invite you to join us for Bigelow Civics Day 2020. See how these young changemakers are addressing community issues!

Since late-January, our 8th graders have been exploring strategies for effective advocacy of real community issues to apply their knowledge of government, citizenship, and the lawmaking process. Topics range from drug use to recycling programs to mental health. At this event, students aim to share their work and their plans with city leaders and parent constituents. They need to lobby for your support, hear your suggestions, and then revise and implement their tactics. Your attendance will greatly aid their efforts, their engagement, and their impact!
