Question: Which cities and states have Civics taught in K-6th?

[Golden Raisin]

5. In the early 1960s we had Civics in Junior High.

We had a remarkable teacher who went on to a successful career in politics as a State Assemblyman. In Senior High he taught a course entitled "American Government" which included a trip to Washington, D.C. Traditional Civics courses raised the intelligence quotient of the electorate as those students became voting adults. They had a basic understanding of how our Government is supposed to work. More importantly, you have to know your Constitution (and Declaration) to realize when your rights are being abrogated or taken away outright. I personally believe the absence of traditional Civics courses today is not an accident.
