=Welcome to our 8th Grade Civic Discussion!=

1. Responsible Citizen This is a responsible person in the community. They do things like giving blood, picking up trash, recycling and they always obey the law. 2. Active Citizen This is a person who participates in the community. This means they’re active in the government, community organizations or have a government job- teachers, firefighters, the mayor, politicians, etc. 3. Citizen for Justice This is a lot like an active citizen. The difference is this kind of person tries to fix social injustice-they strive for very good change in the community and try to help everyone. Just being active does not mean you want to fix problems that need to be fixed. This kind of citizen works hard to fix problems in the entire community.
