Introduction to Parliamentary Procedure

Foundational Robert's Rules for 9th-10th graders: basic motions, voting, and meeting roles.

About this event

Introduction to Parliamentary Procedure is the 9th-10th grade entry point to parliamentary procedure. It stays with the essentials: what a motion is and the basic steps to introduce one, simple majority vs. two-thirds votes, common officer roles, and the typical order of a meeting agenda. It is the natural lead-in to the full Parliamentary Procedure team event.
