2026 Civics Bee
ABOUT THE BEE
The Pearland Chamber of Commerce is partnering with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation
to host a nonpartisan civics competition that encourages young Americans to engage in civics and
contribute to their communities. Participating 6th, 7th and 8th graders will flex their civics knowledge
for a chance to win recognition and cash prizes. Finalists will be invited to Washington, DC to compete
in the National Civics Bee® national championship in Fall 2026.
WHY CIVICS?
The Pearland Chamber of Commerce is participating in the National Civics Bee® because
we believe that informed and active citizens make for a strong country, a strong economy,
and a strong workforce, and that our continued prosperity depends on the strength of all three.
Through the Bee, we are promoting greater civic knowledge in Texas and celebrating our civic pride.
