Examples of Civics in a Sentence

1. Adam Waldeck:

   The push for CRT and action civics is well-funded, organized and chock-full of word games meant to hide the truth from parents and taxpayers — and the fact that its proponents can even get a foot in the door in a state like South Dakota shows how much work there is to do, gov. Noem’s freezing of her state’s standards review process was exactly the right move and shows her commitment to getting this right.

2. Kelly Loeffler:

   Civics curriculum is an important part of an education that prepares students for lives of leadership and service, but allowing partisan groups like The New Georgia Project to advocate for liberal policies in the classroom is wrong. Schools fail to serve the best interests of their students when they promote a political agenda and push them into partisan activism rather than academic success.

3. Link Starbureiy:

   Mechanisms of the political body can be mimicked with civics alone; either by taxes or votes.

4. Kyle Olson:

   There’s a major problem when it comes to civics education in American public schools that people need to get serious about.

5. Kurt Vonnegut:

   I was taught in the sixth grade that we had a standing army of just over a hundred thousand men and that the generals had nothing to say about what was done in Washington. I was taught to be proud of that and to pity Europe for having more than a million men under arms and spending all their money on airplanes and tanks. I simply never unlearned junior civics. I still believe in it. I got a very good grade.
