The Constitutional Academy is a program of the Bill of Rights Institute, an educational non-profit organization based in Arlington, Virginia, whose mission is to educate young people about the words and ideas of America’s Founders, the liberties guaranteed in our Founding documents, and how our Founding principles continue to affect and shape a free society.
The Constitutional Academy is designed for high school students who love history, the Constitution, politics, or economics. This program allows students to experience Washington, D.C. through site visits, scholar lectures and discussions, activities, group projects, and college and career information.
At the Constitutional Academy, students learn from college professors and subject-matter experts about how history, economics, politics, and current events connect.
We are looking forward to answering any questions you might have about this wonderful program. Questions? EmailAcademy@BillofRightsInstitute.org or 703-894-1776 x 15.
