8th Grade Civics Showcase
Posted on 06/02/2025
Over 400 grade 8 students participated in the third annual CPS Civics Showcase at the Massachusetts State House last month. Students presented their civic action projects to over 75 community advisors, toured the State House, and met with Representatives Marjorie Decker, Mike Connolly, and Steve Owens in the House Chamber. At the end of the event, 24 projects were announced as finalists. Students presented these projects at the finalist showcase, at Cambridge City Hall.
One student group from each upper school was selected to represent CPS at the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) statewide showcase in Boston on Friday, June 6.
