We The People Regional Competition 2025
The We The People Regional Competition took place on January 11, 2025, at Portland Community College – Cascades. This exciting event brought together high school students participating in the “We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution” program, a unique initiative focused on learning about the US Constitution through simulated congressional hearings.

We The People State Competition 2024
Lincoln High School claimed first place and will continue on to the national competition, hosted by the Center for Civic Education on April 13-15, 2024 at the National Conference Center near Washington, DC.
Grant High School was the runner up this year. Oregon secured a national wildcard slot, so the Grant team will join Lincoln in the nation’s Capital in April.
