Why just study history, when you can make it?
Close Up’s Premier Election Series provides students the chance to witness history as it unfolds, and the opportunity to delve into the most important issues facing our nation. These two exciting programs are offered only once every four years – so don’t miss out!

The material seems very high level, and my daughter’s been very motivated to participate every day. I wanted to be sure to commend the staff on providing such a great experience!
I think Close Up’s virtual program is an amazing experience…
I learned that there’s a huge network of people with the same goals and drive as me…
and that our collaboration really could make a difference. It gave me hope for the future of our communities and our nation!
I plan to introduce Close Up’s professional development to the teachers I work with…
and use this as a part of my school’s requirement that students take action on issues of local, national, and international importance.
