Libby Liberty jumps off her pedestal to greet Hartselle City Schools students
Special to the Enquirer
Second-grade students in Hartselle City Schools cheered and counted down to the grand entrance of Libby Liberty Aug. 13. Wearing green paper crowns and waving tiny American flags, they showed their enthusiasm for the Super Citizen Program.
Liberty Learning Foundation, with sponsorship by the Morgan County Community Alliance, kicked off this year’s program in a big way, with an appearance by Libby Liberty and on-screen introduction to “Mr. Palmer, a brash and brilliant hand-character who leads students in DVD-based lessons in civics, character, financial literacy and our Great American Story.”
Students will now learn crucial all-American lessons and begin the process of nominating “Helping Hands Heroes,” who they will honor at their graduation celebration when the program is complete for this year.
