The Campaign for the Civic Mission of Schools (2011) lamented the
"lack of high-quality civic education in America's schools [that]
leaves millions of citizens without the wherewithal to make sense
of our system of government" (p. 4). Preus et al. (2016) cited
literature to support their observation of "a decline in
high-quality civic education and a low rate of civic engagement of
young people" (p. 67). Shapiro and Brown (2018) asserted that
"civic knowledge and public engagement is at an all-time low" (p.
1). Writing as a college senior, Flaherty (2020) urged educators to
"bravely interpret . . . national, local, and even school-level
incidents as chances for enhanced civic education and to discuss
them with students in both formal and casual settings" (p. 6). In
this eighth volume in the Current Perspectives on
School/University/Community Research series, we feature the work of
brave educators who are engaged in school-university-community
collaborative educational endeavors. Authors focus on a wide range
of projects oriented to civic education writ large-some that have
been completed and some that are still in progress-but all authors
evince the passion for civic education that underpins engagement in
the democratic project.
