Youth in Government
Eastern Carver County Schools is assembling a student delegation for Youth in Government (YIG) this fall! Open to students in grades 9–12, this hands-on civic experience lets you step into the roles of legislators, lawyers, judges, lobbyists, or cabinet members. You'll meet bi-weekly this fall to prepare for the four-day state model government conference in January 2026, where you'll debate real issues, pass your own laws, and lead with your values.
YIG looks great on college applications and job resumes, builds leadership skills, and helps you learn how to create the change you want to see. There is a Delegation fee of $50; as well as a registration fee through the YMCA, that will be paid through a combination of grants, fundraising, and self-pay options.More information can be found on ECCS’ Community Ed website. Contact Sally Diehl – diehls@district112.org with any questions.
