"Ask Me
What's Great About
America"

The Indiana State Bar Association is seeking volunteers to participate in "Ask Me What's Great About America," a program to help educators comply with the federal regulation requiring the development of student programming to celebrate Constitution Day on Monday, September 17.

This is a wonderful opportunity for volunteer attorneys to speak in 8th grade classrooms statewide about the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Attorneys who volunteer will be provided presentation materials for a one-hour program.  In the past four years, more than 650 attorneys have met with students from all over the state.  It is the hope of this Section and your Association that this year’s event will be as big and as successful as in previous years.  Help spread the word about “Ask Me What’s Great About America!”  We need your help in contacting schools in your local community to get them involved in “Ask Me What’s Great About America.”  Please contact your local schools and give them the enclosed school registration form so that they can participate in this wonderful program!

In 2003, "Ask Me What's Great About America" earned the LexisNexis Community & Educational Outreach Award and was highlighted at the Young Lawyers Division of the American Bar Association Annual Meeting in 2004.

Please join us as we celebrate Constitution Day 2007, the 220th anniversary of our nation's founding document. To volunteer as a speaker for this program on September 17, 2007, please return this form to ISBA by Friday, August 31.

For more information or questions, please contact Alaina Byers at (317) 639-5465
