Teachers: Get Teams Ready for Wisconsin Civics Games

Later this year, the nonprofit Wisconsin Newspaper Association Foundation will host the third Wisconsin Civics Games, during which high school students compete to answer civics-related questions in head-to-head matches. 

The preliminary regional competitions will be held virtually on April 11-12, with the top 12 teams advancing to the state finals on May 10 at the Wisconsin State Capitol. Members of the winning team will each be awarded $2,000 toward tuition to a Wisconsin college or university of their choice.

Teachers and students interested in participating in the Games can sign up online at bit.ly/wicivicsgames through March 1. Participants will receive a textbook to help them prepare for the Games, as well as access to several online resources.
