League of Women Voters Conversation: How Are We Educating Our Youth To Be Active Citizens

Representatives of our three school districts, Berkeley, Albany and Emeryville, will talk about the new core curriculum and civics education in our schools.  Civics education is important to our democracy and must be included in the new core curriculum.  The core curriculum is a radical new approach to national standards in all subjects at all grade levels.  Curriculum is still being developed. Join us for a conversation on how our future citizens learn how to participate actively in our government.
