What an incredible showing on the national stage! Fishers Junior High finished as national runner-up, and Fall Creek Junior High earned third place in the We the People National Invitational. 🏆
Students demonstrated their constitutional knowledge through simulated congressional hearings, presenting prepared remarks and answering questions from judges, attorneys, constitutional scholars and civic leaders.
This recognition follows regional and state titles for both teams.
Congratulations to our students and coaches!
