"After spending the morning with some very engaging 8th graders
at Twinfield Union School, my belief is reinforced that Project Citizen
offers kids more than a course in civics education. It gives them a
real-life opportunity to develop and sharpen their decision-making
abilities. I hope, for our country's sake, that some of these Project
Citizen students opt for a career in public service"
Senator James M. Jeffords,
speaking to the Twinfield (VT)
Union School's 8th grade Project Citizen class
