New Constitution 101 for Middle School Curriculum

Posted by National Constitution Center on September 16, 2025

We are thrilled to introduce a brand-new, free version of our popular Constitution 101 curriculum designed specifically for middle school students. Building on the success of Constitution 101 for High School that is used by thousands of educators, the new middle school version adapts the same trusted framework for grades 6–8.

This course is a set of 15 flexible modules that will lead middle schoolers through the process of inquiry to build their own understanding of the Constitution. By exploring the Constitution’s history and creation, its unique structure, and pivotal case law, students will study the historical and philosophical foundations of America’s founding principles throughout history.

Learn more about the curriculum from Lucy, student’s new animated guide to constitutional learning and explore the curriculum.
