CALLING ALL CIVIC ENGAGEMENT STUDENTS!!!
You’ve put in real work on your State Seal of Civic Engagement project—now it’s time to show it off!
We’re inviting you to present your project at the State Seal of Civic Engagement Showcase, where you’ll get to share your ideas, highlight your impact, and see what other students across the district have been working on.
Don't worry; you don't have to present to a huge audience! The showcase will be museum-style, with visitors walking by your display and speaking with you individually.
This is your chance to:
- Show what you created
- Represent your school
- Get recognized for your work
- Get your medal for graduation early
- And yes… there will be pizza 🍕
