8th graders start Civics led action projects this month
This month, RAUC 8th grade students will begin working on the capstone unit for their Civics class- the student-led civics group project.

  • For this project, students will take informed, authentic action toward a sustained change they want to see in their community. 
  • Students will be required and encouraged to reach out and be in contact with decision-makers who impact their communities. 
  • These include school administrators, elected officials, and others with high civic capital. 
  • Students will present their projects at the State House on May 23. 
    • Last year, one of our student groups was selected to present their project “Juvenile Justice Education: Protecting the Path for Youth” at the National Civics Showcase (photo on right)!
