PLAN NOW FOR A LOCAL GOVERNMENT AWARENESS DAY!

When? Pick any day that best fits your schedule!

What Can You Do? Invite a local government official into your class as a speaker-visit city hall-research the history of your city-hold a discussion on sales tax revenues--brainstorm an issue facing your school, city, state, or country--hold a debate on that issue and develop an action plan to solve that issue.

Why? To introduce students to the important role local government plays in their community

Partners: University of Missouri-St. Louis-College of Education, University of MO Extension, Missouri Municipal League (MML), Missouri City/County Management Association (MCMA), & St. Louis Area City Management Association (SLACMA)
