Do you have a teenager interested in debate, law, or politics- or could be? Teenpact may be just what he needs. Spend a week in the spring in our state’s capitol, learning our governing system, writing bills, and meeting important legislatures up close while having fun and making friends. Registration is limited. In years past, teens from other states came to Missouri Teenpact because our capitol building did not shut down. Here is what you need to know.
Teenpact Leadership School trains students to be a leader where they are, whatever they do.
Dates
Missouri Teenpact has three separate classes. They cover the same material, but the dates are different. The first is at the end of February. The next is in March. The final one is after Easter and the eclipse in April.
Registration
Registration is required to attend. Registering this month allows for an extra early bird discount. While a $50 deposit will reserve your place, the final sum is due before the event. You can register here.
Classwork
Teenpact does have homework to be completed before class begins. This entails definitions, writing a bill, and knowing our Missouri legislators.
Location
This happens in Jefferson City, Missouri. The classes take place at the Truman Center, with students walking between there and the Capitol. Families can stay at a hotel, Airbnb, or wherever they choose. They offer meal choices, too.
Teenpact trains youth that one person can make a difference. Teenpact is open to Christian teenagers in every state.
