Bill > S2841

This bill, known as the Constitution and Civics Education Is Valuable In Community Schools Act (CIVICS Act) of 2025, amends the American History and Civics Education program within the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to enhance educational programs related to civics and constitutional education. The bill requires that national educational activities in this program: demonstrate potential to improve student achievement and teaching of American history, civics, government, and geography; show innovation and accountability with a focus on underserved populations; incorporate hands-on civic engagement activities for both teachers and students; and include educational programs that teach students about the history and principles of the United States Constitution, specifically highlighting the Bill of Rights. By mandating these provisions, the bill aims to strengthen civic education and engagement among elementary and secondary school students, ensuring they gain a deeper understanding of the nation's foundational legal and governmental principles through interactive and comprehensive learning approaches.
