Temperance and Good Citizenship Day
Yesterday (Jan. 16), schools throughout the state observed Temperance and Good Citizenship Day, an annual event created in 1923 to educate future voters about the importance of civic engagement.
Students learned about the processes and impacts of voting in elections. Students age 17 are encouraged to register as Future Voters so they become an official voter on their 18th birthday.
“Young people have the power to impact their communities,” Secretary of State Steve Hobbs said in a message to students last week. “The Office of the Secretary of State is proud to be part of this event that encourages participation in the democratic process and showcases how easy it is to be involved.”
