CONF 1

The Wisconsin Civics Games, sponsored by the Wisconsin Newspaper Association Foundation beginning in 2018, is a competition that promotes civics education as well as civic and civil engagement among teams of high school students. This session will feature an opportunity to learn more about the 2025 Games, including the Editorial Writing and Editorial Cartoon contest. Perhaps you'll consider helping to create a team of students, join a teacher advisory board, serve as a judge, or help to devise some questions for this year's virtual playoffs on April 9-10 and the finals at the State Capitol on May 2nd. .

The session will be led by Eve Galanter, a Foundation board member and founder of the Wisconsin Civics Games.
