Our 2024 Let Me Read You Your Rights Campaign begins with a commitment on Justice Sunday, a start on MLK Day, and continues through Read Across America Day.
Civic literacy goes beyond basic knowledge of government structures and processes. It involves understanding the rights, responsibilities, and values that underpin a democratic society. Students with civic literacy grasp the significance of active citizenship, civil rights, social justice, and ethical decision-making. They develop a sense of belonging, ownership, and agency in their communities, inspiring them to contribute to positive change.
