This full day training will provide educators with all the tools they need to bring
the Medal of Honor Character Development Program into their classrooms.

This extensive curriculum, which uses the Oral Histories of Medal of Honor
Recipients, focuses on values and how students can use these examples of courage,
commitment, sacrifice, integrity, citizenship and patriotism to influence change in
their own communities. Teachers and administrators from middle and high schools
and across all disciplines are invited to attend, and substitute teacher costs can be
reimbursed to the district or school.

Attendees will:
• Receive the full curriculum kit at no cost
• Participate in model lessons
• Learn best practices for their classrooms
• Enjoy a complimentary breakfast and lunch
