Dear John,

After a successful initial pilot phase, we are excited to continue the testing of ADL’s new civics education program by inviting you to pilot lessons in your classroom. While ADL has been a leader in anti-bias education for more than four decades, civics education is a new initiative for us. ADL believes that enabling students to explore their civic engagement and identities through an anti-bias and social justice lens is essential for creating a more inclusive and equitable school, community, and society.
Who are you inviting?
We are currently inviting up to 20 high school, grades 9-12, Civics and American or U.S. government teachers to participate in this pilot. We welcome any teachers from public, private, independent or charter schools to apply.
When will the pilot take place?
The pilot will take place during spring semester 2020. You will be asked to teach and provide quantitative and qualitative feedback on 15 lessons that address the core civic themes of Structures of Democracy, Civic Participation, Social Justice and Civil Rights, Power and Privilege, Identity and Membership, and Media and News Literacy.
What will I receive for participating?

Participating teachers will receive a $500 honorarium upon completion of the feedback process.
What support will I receive?
To support your work with this new curriculum, we will be conducting professional development through an online course December 2-6, 2019. The focus will be on how to facilitate productive discussion of controversial or difficult topics, teaching Civics with ADL’s anti-bias framework, and writing in the Civics classroom. When selecting pilot participants, preference will be given to those who participate in the professional development.
How do I sign up?

To apply for a place in the pilot, please complete the
