Civic Learning Week 2025:

Civic Learning for a Strong Democracy

March 10-14, 2025

Please register now for Civic Learning Week 2025, which will be held this year from March 10-14. The theme this year is “Civic Learning for a Strong Democracy”, and we’re excited to bring together students, educators, policymakers, and local leaders to further energize this movement. As in past years, MCLC will host Massachusetts-focused events while National Civic Learning Week hosts events on the national stage. To ensure access for all, every session will be free and most will be virtual. 

This year, MCLC is hosting:

  • Student-focused sessions during the school day, for teachers to share with their classes. 

  • Teacher-focused sessions in the afternoons, to provide professional learning and support. 

  • General public sessions during the day and evening, to engage policymakers and families in the work of promoting civic learning.

  • Celebrate Teacher & Student Work

    We know there is great civic learning happening in schools across Massachusetts. Civic Learning Week is the time to celebrate it. If you have seen interesting, innovative, or high-quality work from students or educators (including yourself!) please help us build a collection of examples that we can share using the button below:
