Civic Seal Program and Scholarship
A scholarship program for students seeking careers in public service
The future of Nevada relies on residents who participate in their communities. For this reason, we’re partnering with the Department of Education’s Civic Seal, a public/private program working to educate our K through 12 students in civics, social studies, and leadership in a robust, meaningful, and in-depth manner.
An important goal of America250 Nevada is to support schools, students, and educators who exemplify a commitment to civic engagement and leadership through the Nevada School of Civic Excellence program, the Student Civic Leader Award, and the Civic Educator Award. This America250 Nevada initiative strives to fund qualified schools who are otherwise struggling to support civic programs.
Our goals are to:
Bring more awareness of this program to students, parents and educators to expand it to rural and underfunded schools.
Financially support schools to allow them to expand civic and leadership programs.
Award Civic Seal participants with scholarship funds to continue their education.
