Middle School Students Get Inside Look at Government
-
Published May 30, 2023
WCS middle school students across the district experienced the political process at this year's YMCA Tennessee Youth in Government Conferences at the State Capitol May 5 and 12.
The annual Youth in Government Conferences give students around Tennessee the opportunity to become government officials for the day. Students create and debate bills with their peers while serving as representatives, senators, lawyers, lobbyists and more.
"There are many benefits of Youth in Government for middle school students," said Sunset Middle social studies teacher Wilson Boyd. "They practice critical thinking and research through the bill-writing process, public speaking skills as they advocate for their bills and learn about civic engagement and current events by playing the role of a state legislator. One of the highlights for participants is using the actual State Capitol building and legislative hearing rooms. Students really feel as if they're legislators, and they take their roles seriously. It's quite fun to hear them debate each other about actual issues facing Tennessee."
At the middle school conferences, students received awards such as Outstanding Statesperson and Outstanding Bill.
