Our two local high schools finished first and second in the state finals competition of We The People.  HSE High School finished first in the state with Fishers High School placing second.  HSE will be competing in the national finals, which will be held virtually this school year, April 23-26, 2021.

HSE has 24 students as team members competing.  “Our team is grateful to assistant coach Alana Kane as well as all of the unit mentors,” said HSE We The People coach Janet Chandler.

We The People is a competition based on civic knowledge.  A team of students present a paper to a panel of judges on an issue of American government issues and history, then defend the paper by fielding questions from the panel.
