Research shows that students who experience civic learning opportunities such as mock elections are more likely to vote as adults.

When students practice voting before they graduate, they are more confident, more informed, and more likely to participate in the future.

That is the mission of Kids Voting Ohio. Every student. Every school. Every year.

Voter registration deadline for the May Primary is April 6th!

Students who will be 18 before the general election can register now! Kids Voting Ohio supports schools that want to host voter registration drives. We can provide guidance, materials, and a simple framework to help your students lead the effort.

A voter registration drive is a powerful way to connect classroom learning with real world action. If your high school is interested, let us know and we will help you get started.
