Torch Teams, the inspiring culmination to the Super Citizen Program, teaches students about local heroes and gives them ideas for honoring those heroes in front of hundreds of peers and the community. In their graduation celebrations, Super Citizens honor local, everyday heroes from stage with the Authentic Liberty Replica. It’s emotional for the heroes and everyone witnessing the transformation that happens. But first, the students participate in project-based learning activities and devise coin drops, small businesses and services to raise money to buy the statues they will present. This video shows students learning everything from creating, manufacturing, taxes, marketing and more … It’s an awesome example of how our students are taking lessons in civics, character, financial literacy and careers and putting them to use in the real world. Bravo!
