The Good Citizen Challenge Sparks an Interest in Civics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The midterm elections are just five weeks away, and the political partisans are at each other’s throats. But everyone, from the MAGA crowd to the Democratic Socialists of America, can probably agree that we want our kids to grow up to be responsible adults. Seven Days organizes the Good Citizen Challenge to help them. Our youth civics project invited kids in grades K-8 to do 25 different community-minded activities between mid-May and Labor Day. On September 17, we celebrated the Challenge taker
Cathy Resmer: Dropping My Kids Off at College (opens the original)
Read excerpt
All across Vermont, college students have begun returning to their campuses for the fall semester. This year, instead of being a bystander, I’ve been part of this mass migration. My wife and I recently moved our two children into their Vermont State University dorm rooms for the first time. Ann-Elise trekked to Johnson with our daughter, Ivy, 18; I headed two hours south to Castleton with our 20-year-old son, Graham.

I got misty-eyed the other day when I saw my Florida cousins post first-day-of-school pictures on social media, remembering when my kids were that age. Still, fall always makes me feel hopeful. For students, it’s a time to meet new teachers, start new classes and make new goals for the academic year ahead. Parents are also along for the rid
K-8 Students Have Fun Taking the 2026 Good Citizen Challenge | Seven Days (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Since 2018, Seven Days and Kids VT have been organizing the Good Citizen Challenge, a youth civics project for kids in grades K-8. It gives them 25 activities they can do to earn “stars.” The tasks range from simple to complex: Reading a book or visiting a memorial is good for one star; talking with a journalist or taking a three-day break from screens is worth three. Each star earned is an entry in drawings for prizes that include $50 gift cards to Phoenix Books and the grand prize — a free tri
