Constitution Day Project

“[The Constitution Day Project] introduces students to issues that are of national importance but have a tremendous impact on the small community of Wray, Colorado. It starts to develop the students into the informed citizens we’d like them to become.” —Rick Ward, Principal, Wray High School, Constitution Day participant since 2010.

Sign up as a volunteer or participant in this year's Constitution Day Project, taking place during the last two weeks of September.

The Constitution Day Project was launched in September 2011. Each September since then, dozens of volunteers have visited classrooms all over Colorado, offering interactive lesson plans that raised tough questions. Themes have included the First Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, voting rights, the Constitution more generally, and other topics that engage students with current events and the role the Constitution plays in them.

The application is now open to volunteer for the 2026 Constitution Day Project. If you are a law student, attorney, teacher or high school administrator interested in participating, please click the gold button below:
