• Teaches respect and proper care for the U.S. Flag.
  • Flag Education for Kids
  • Federal Flag Code

• Brings attention to Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action by hosting POW/MIA ceremonies to both educate the public and honor these special veterans.
  • Missing Man Table Ceremony

• Recognizes the nation’s top classroom elementary, junior high (middle school) and high school teachers who teach citizenship education topics regularly and promote America’s history and traditions effectively.
