Because you support GenerationNation, students - and our community - have an advantage. Students are building civic literacy and leadership from an early age. This helps kids in school and in their development as lifelong citizens, leaders, and learners...impacting our community for years to come.

We all benefit when students can:

• Grow as confident citizens who can read and analyze information, communicate, think critically, collaborate, solve problems, and make decisions
• Understand how their governments and communities work
• Gain essential knowledge for academic success including graduation requirements Civics & Economics and American History
• Develop lifelong civic leadership
