We The People Competition

Are you interested in sharing your knowledge of the legal system with Arizona youth? Volunteer to judge the We The People Competition & Showcase on January 7, 2026!

We The People: The Citizen and The Constitution State Competition is a simulated congressional hearing that provides students an opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of constitutional principles and ideas while providing teachers an excellent means of assessing student learning.

Students prepare and present statements before a panel of community representatives acting as a congressional committee. Students then answer follow-up questions posed by the committee members. Judges score students on provided rubrics.
