Essay Submissions Open for 2027 National Civics Bee Following Colorado Student’s Historic National Championship Win

DENVER – The Colorado Chamber Foundation today announced the opening of essay submissions for the 2027 National Civics Bee, building on a historic year for Colorado after a local student claimed the 2026 national championship title earlier this month. The annual competition encourages middle school students to strengthen their civic knowledge, engage in their communities and develop the skills to become the next generation of civic leaders. The Foundation is expanding the program’s reach across Colorado in 2027, as a record 10 regional partners will host competitions across the state. The expansion will create more opportunities for middle school students from communities across Colorado to participate and compete for a chance to represent the state at the national championship in Washington, D.C.
