Kids Voting - Guilford County is a voter-education program. Students from kindergarten through high school learn about the election process at school through an exciting, interactive curriculum. On Election Day, they go with their families to polling sites where they vote for the same candidates and issues which appear on the adult ballot. The goal of the program is to increase informed voter participation by teaching students about the electoral process and by encouraging them to become lifetime voters. The program also reminds adults that voting is not only a right but a privilege to be cherished. |
