Programs

Youth in Government is a free 8-12 week program offered to elementary school students in which they get the opportunity to visit several city departments, including fire, water, police, and public works. Students directly interact with department heads, city officials, and participate in mock city council meetings at the city council chambers. Sessions are usually offered seasonally, and sign-ups will be posted accordingly. 

The second session of Youth in Government has concluded. Look out for a middle-schooler's Youth in Government program in upcoming months and another one for 5th Graders starting in the 2025-26 school year.
