Constitution In The Classroom Civics Education Project
Help expand a program to teach students important Constitutional principles.
Posted July 20, 2023
Join the American Constitution Society's longest-running, community-education project, Constitution in the Classroom. ACS's Constitution in the Classroom program provides an opportunity for lawyers to teach lessons based on the United States Constitution in elementary, middle, and high schools throughout the country. Participating is a great way to increase constitutional literacy in schools and excite young minds about the Constitution. ACS prepares age-specific, interactive lesson plans that cover current Constitutional issues.
We are currently looking for volunteers to help lead the expansion of our Constitution in the Classroom program. This includes developing relationships with local schools where the volunteer is located and helping coordinate additional volunteers to teach lessons in classrooms twice a year. In certain locations there are opportunities to connect with others already doing this work, but there are also many locations where the program has not yet expanded. ACS will help volunteers through the process and provide training and resources.

American Constitution Society
The American Constitution Society (ACS) believes that law should be a force to improve the lives of all people. ACS works for positive change by shaping debate on vitally important legal and constitutional issues through development and promotion of high-impact ideas to opinion leaders and the media; by building networks of lawyers, law students, judges and policymakers dedicated to those ideas; and by countering the activist conservative legal movement that has sought to erode our enduring constitutional values.
