“I was so impressed. I mean what an amazing show! It was so fun they didn’t even call it learning, so this was just so great. The younger we can start teaching them our history and the legacy and joy of liberty and freedom the better. This is the age we can mold them and shape them into being a good citizen. Fundraising for this type of event is critical and we couldn’t do it without our sponsors. They play a critical role in shaping our young people, I think we will all benefit from the fruit that they are laboring as our young people grow up to be good community citizens”
Rena Anderson – Director of Community Relations for Huntsville City Schools
“I thought the program was absolutely outstanding. We’ve just got to take care of the United State of America and be great leaders and these kids are some of the leaders that we are going to have in the future”
Richard Long – Mayor City of Jackson
“This has been a great program for our schools because it has reminded our students of the value of citizenship and the value of America. This program is invaluable to our school system. I talk to adults all the time and give speeches in a lot of places and so many of them are missing the value, the beauty of what this country is, so that’s why I am so excited that this is coming out to our kids.”
Alan Cosby – Superintendent – Etowah County Schools
“I support America. I support freedom … and I support all the things that Liberty Learning is doing.”
Lee Greenwood, Singer/Songwriter
“It’s just truly, truly a wonderful program and it really stands for the things that our bank stands for, that I stand for, what our Chairman, our President and all of us stand for. And that’s to get these children to understand to be better citizens, to be better people, we’ll begin to change the world.”
Matt Cooper, Executive VP of CB&S Bank in Russellville City
“The sponsors are investing in our children, they are investing in our future, they are taking those young minds and helping them realize what they are gonna be in the future. They are going to be leaders and that is so important. The sponsorship in this program is one that takes a young student and turns them into a citizen and turns them into part of the community. You take it to those levels, you are doing something special.”
Tommy Battle, Mayor of Huntsville, AL

Super Citizen
“Thank you so much, we just cant tell you enough how much we appreciate what you do for our schools and for bringing something like this to us, its such an amazing program.” I hope they keep the excitement that we saw today with the kickoff and I hope that they think deeply about Liberty and being a good citizen of America and that it continues throughout their lives”
5th grade teacher – Huntsville City Schools
“I think it is a great program, I truly do. It was a very emotional program. I was very honored. I was very thankful. You sometimes think that children, 5th grade don’t see what you do and don’t appreciate what you do and so it was very humbling to know that they do pay attention and appreciate what we do in the schools. I just appreciate the opportunity that the sponsors have allowed us to have and it’s a big plus for our school system.”
Library Media Specialist – Monroe County Schools
“I’m very excited about the opportunity to provide this to your schools and have spoken to Gwen Wheeler, principal at Jackson Intermediate in Clarke County, who told me that her students 'truly began to recognize the blessings of living in a country like the United States,' and it enhanced the social studies program in a way she could not imagine. She told me she actually saw a positive change in discipline after the completion of this and felt her students acquired an in-depth awareness of good citizenship and its importance to America and the future of America.”
Elementary Science/Social Studies Supervisor of Mobile County Schools
“I honestly can’t choose (my favorite lesson)! My class had many awesome and beneficial conversations from many of the lessons!”
3rd grade teacher – Eufaula City Schools
“Just a follow-up from Liberty Learning's Marketplace-I have a student that was so inspired, he is planning on getting his business license, and has started creating his own website for advertising. It was the student who made the coasters. I am so proud of him. This is another reason why I love this curriculum and project based learning.”
5th grade teacher – Huntsville City School
“We are applying what we’re learning to our lives. Students have chosen 8 super citizens from our community, so we are working toward earning enough to order our statues. We’re over half way now. We have used the super citizen platform as a springboard for many things. I asked the students to write persuasive paragraphs to tell me what they would change in their school. That has led to 5th grade students beginning a new club, “Friends for Change,” and working to fund a project to improve our playground. I believe we are motivating students to get involved in their community, work together for the good of others, and raising self-esteem as well. We do have the next, great Americans sitting in our classrooms.”
5th grade teacher – Cullman County Schools
American Character
"The American Character Program has had a profound impact on our students this year. It’s not just about learning values—it’s about living them. We've seen students grow in confidence, empathy, and responsibility, and they’re taking those lessons beyond the classroom. This program is helping shape thoughtful, engaged citizens, and we’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be part of it."
7th grade teacher – Jackson County Schools
"The generation of today needs to understand the importance of having great character and using this program can help do that for generations to come. Students were able to engage in community programs and help others through their civics projects. From reading to elementary students, to visiting the elderly, to giving to the needy, to helping homeless dogs, to planting a garden, the students learned how to plan for their projects and learned the joy of giving back to the community."
7th grade teacher – Etowah County Schools
"The program’s focus on figures really helps to bring the historical context to life for students! I loved seeing the students light up about learning about the different characters!"
7th grade teacher – Dothan City Schools
Citizen Promise
"The Citizen Promise Program has been a great opportunity for my students to learn how to be better community members and possible leaders one day. They have learned directly from community members how to become employable and successful adults. Community members have helped my students with the resume process, job application, and interviewing skills. I am very thankful that our school has participated in this program."
Teacher – Cullman High School teacher
“Citizen Promise offers a comprehensive curriculum for high school students, enabling them to explore the realities of adulthood. The program equips students with the skills to manage daily responsibilities, make informed decisions, and maintain financial stability. Moreover, it provides students with opportunities to participate in civic duties and experience the world of government up close. The program also encourages students to give back to their communities and offers scholarships. The ambassador program helps students develop leadership skills and prepares them for leadership positions.”
Career Prep Teacher – Carver 9th Grade Academy
“My students love the financial literacy lesson that liberty learning did. The lesson was very engaging and the kids like playing Jenga learning about how to make their money stretch.”
History teacher – Dothan High School
"I am interested in being a Citizen Promise ambassador next year because I just have seen the service you can do for our community and I would love to be a part of that. The kinds of people in Citizen Promise are the kind of people I want to surround myself with, and I just believe that it would be a great opportunity for me not only to have personal growth but to help others and the community as well."
