Happy 250th Birthday, America!
May 14, 2026
High School Leadership students from HSE and HSW brought the excitement of America's upcoming 250th birthday directly to our elementary schools! Students visited elementary buildings as part of the 50-day countdown to Independence Day 2026, a milestone that marks one of the most significant celebrations in our nation's history.
The Leadership students designed and delivered an engaging lesson centered on the Declaration of Independence, inspiring our youngest learners to think deeply about America's founding ideals. Elementary students then put their creativity to work, designing birthday cards for the nation and writing letters to their future selves to be read on America's 300th birthday in 2076!
