Join us for a showcase of our region’s upcoming civic talent. In a live bee format, up to 20 students in sixth, seventh and eighth grade will face off in a test of their knowledge of civic education. The students will be asked a series of multiple-choice and short-answer questions and will also present their submitted essays. A fun feature at this event will include the ability for audience members to test their knowledge in real time along with the contestants by participating through mobile technology. The winners of the regional bees will participate in the statewide civics bee in Madison on Flag Day on June 14, 2024. The winner of the National Civics Bee Wisconsin State Finals will be invited to Washington, DC to compete in the inaugural National Civics Bee national championship in Fall 2024. This program is presented in partnership with the US Chamber of Commerce and The Wisconsin Manufactures & Commerce. This program is free to attend and open to the public.
