National Civics Bee local competition participants with Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel.

The Chaldean Community Foundation and the Chaldean American Chamber of Commerce are once again partnering with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation and Michigan Chamber of Commerce to offer the 2025 National Civics Bee to local contestants.

This annual nonpartisan competition designed for middle schoolers to boost their civics knowledge, skills, and passion for community involvement offers students a chance to participate in State and National Civics Bee competitions.

Any 6th, 7th or 8th grade student residing in Michigan can flex their civics knowledge for a chance to win recognition and cash prizes. Finalists will be invited to Washington, D.C. to compete in the National Civics Bee national championship in Fall 2025.

The application portal is open, and all applications are due February 4, 2025, before 11:59pm.
