Encourage Students in Your Community to Shine

Get ready to ignite civic engagement in your community! The application period for the 2026 National Civics Bee is now open for 6th to 8th-grade students.

This annual competition encourages young people to flex their civics knowledge and get involved in their communities by identifying real issues and offering solutions. Top students will get to compete for grand prizes including a $100,000 education savings plan contribution for the national champion.

All Colorado students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades from public, private, charter, and homeschools are eligible to apply.

As the State Champion, Cameron P. will represent Colorado at the National Civics Bee Championship next week.
