| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B | IN THE COMMUNITY - IN 2006, THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION CENTER PARTNERED WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF PHILADELPHIA AND THE ANNENBERG FOUNDATION TO UNDERTAKE A BOLD EDUCATIONAL EXPERIMENT: THE OPENING OF CONSTITUTION HIGH SCHOOL (CHS), A PUBLIC SCHOOL WITH A FOCUS ON U.S. HISTORY AND DEMOCRACY. SINCE THAT TIME, THE CENTER HAS WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS OF CHS TO PROVIDE CURRICULAR MATERIALS, INSTRUCTION, AND PROGRAMMING FOR THE SCHOOL. AMONG ITS MANY INITIATIVES WITH CHS, THE CENTER RUNS A FOUR-PHASE WORKSHOP SERIES TO HELP STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN NATIONAL HISTORY DAY TO DEVELOP CRITICAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR TOPICS, AND TO HONE THEIR STRATEGIES FOR RESEARCHING AND EXECUTING THEIR PROJECTS. MOST RECENTLY, CHS STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND EXECUTION OF OUR POLICING IN A MORE PERFECT UNION PROGRAM-AN INTERACTIVE NEW TRAINING MODULE DESIGNED FOR POLICE OFFICERS WHICH EMPHASIZES THE BILL OF RIGHTS, POLICE LEGITIMACY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION CENTER HOSTS THE ANNUAL CITYWIDE NATIONAL HISTORY DAY COMPETITION FOR PHILADELPHIA. EACH YEAR, THOUSANDS OF MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AND TEACHERS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL HISTORY DAY, A YEARLONG EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM THAT CULMINATES IN A NATIONAL CONTEST EVERY JUNE. STUDENTS COMPETE IN A LOCAL CONTEST, THE WINNERS MOVE ON TO A STATE COMPETITION, AND THOSE WINNERS MOVE ON TO THE NATIONAL COMPETITION IN WASHINGTON, D.C. ALONG THE WAY, EVERY PARTICIPANT GAINS FIRST-HAND EXPERIENCE CONDUCTING HISTORICAL RESEARCH AND PRODUCING A DOCUMENTARY, EXHIBIT, ESSAY, PERFORMANCE, OR WEBSITE. POLICING IN A MORE PERFECT UNION WAS CREATED IN 2015 IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PHILADELPHIA POLICE COMMISSIONER CHARLES RAMSEY AND THE PHILADELPHIA POLICE DEPARTMENT. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO GIVE POLICE RECRUITS AND OFFICERS A HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE DEFINED IN THE U.S. CONSTITUTION. THE PROGRAM ALSO EXAMINES THE HISTORY OF POLICING IN A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY, AND PROVIDES A FORUM FOR OFFICERS AND RECRUITS TO DISCUSS THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR ROLE IN PROTECTING THE RIGHTS OF ALL CITIZENS WITH LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. THE STUDENTS FROM CONSTITUTION HIGH SCHOOL HAVE BEEN CRITICAL TO THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM. |
