We were honored to be in attendance as the graduating class of students at Haleyville Elementary School presented Torch Teams heroes with Liberty replicas, received their graduation certificates and took the Super Citizen Pledge. As children and teachers introuced the heroes they chose to honor on stage, we were moved and inspired to be a part of this movement that’s teaching kids the value of character, civics, financial literacy, careers and our great American Story. All of those crucial elements came together so clearly in today’s celebration!
