"By deepening civics instruction in middle school and high school, we are giving students the tools they need to be more engaged and informed citizens. An understanding of civics strengthens our democracy by ensuring an understanding of the role that everyone plays in the future of their community, our state, and our nation." With this proclamation Gov. Phil Murphy signed into law a requirement that every middle school student in New Jersey engage in two marking periods of Civics Education. This website is designed to help teachers lead their students toward becoming engaged citizens of Atlantic City, New Jersey, and the United States of America.
