Understanding the Constitution Class
American Principles of Government
In 1787 the founders of our great nation met in convention in Philadelphia. The final product of their
work, the United States Constitution, became the single greatest model for government in the history
of the world. These 220 years represent the longest time in recorded history that a free nation has
existed. What foundational principles did they focus on to ensure liberty for future generations?
This enlightening lecture series covers the principles of government that the founders embraced and
built into the Constitution. Students will learn how these principles are just as relevant today as
they were 230 years ago - not only for our national government, but for our state and local
governments as well!

The Declaration of Independence is the document that gave birth to our nation. Today there are
fewer Americans that have read this important document than any other time since our nation’s
birth!
For over 150 years July 4th was the day that Americans all over our great land gathered to celebrate
our nation’s birth – and those celebrations started with a reading of the Declaration of
Independence. Help restore this important tradition by inviting your family, friends and neighbors
to this annual patriotic event!!
In addition to the reading of the Declaration, we will honor our nation through songs and the
pledge of allegiance. Special acknowledgement will be given to our veterans and active duty
military personnel.
