We are proud to announce our newest initiative, Student Power.
This pilot project includes three powerful, hands-on grant opportunities:
-
Project Citizen
-
UTD Effective Citizenship
-
Inner-Club Council
High school students are engaging in project-based learning as they explore the steps involved in creating policy change on a local, state, or federal level. Students learn to identify and research a local public policy issue of their choosing. The grant includes a field trip to a local government meeting, and $500 towards materials and costs of field trip.
Also, we offer teacher training in the steps toward impacting public policy
For the 2019-20 school year, 30 Student Power projects will be funded throughout the County. Interested teachers please contact us for further information.
