Students at Beverlye Magnet are learning about character and civics in the American Character Program this year. Today they were visited by a person who they’ve seen only in character in years past. Kristen Sharp, who normally performs as Libby Liberty™, has taught and entertained many of these 7th grade students as part of their elementary Super Citizen Program. In this performance, she reveals her real self to challenge the audience to take a look at their own character. See the photos below to watch the performance and her powerful message unfold.
