Members of the Bucks County Bar Foundation went to Bristol Township schools in November to help students learn more about the constitution.

The program, dubbed “Learning with Lawyers,” inserted members of the Bucks County Bar Foundation into fifth grade classrooms and led them on a discussion of the book “If You Were There When They Signed The Constitution” by Elizabeth Levy.

“The goal of the program is to introduce and reinforce student understanding of civics and government in a non-partisan way,” according to a school district spokesperson.
