Teaching Civics in Politically Charged Times

Thanks to a grant from the Heinz Endowments, C70 and PA Civics are working with Intermediate Unit 1 to design a training for school administrators and teachers around navigating the current political environment while successfully providing high-quality, nonpartisan civics education to their students. This training will provide administrators and school leadership with information and tools to support their educators who want to teach civics. Teachers in attendance will receive tools on how to successfully communicate with administrators and parents to defuse conflicts before they start. 

Educators can register directly with IU-1. Those who attend will be eligible for Act 48 continuing education credit.
