Students in Decatur, GA put together some fun presentations to showcase what they learned about the Tuskegee Airmen after visiting the RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit. Their teacher also utilized our free RISE ABOVE Resource Kit in their class to prepare them for our visit to their school. Check out their projects!

Because of our tireless supporters, we are able to visit schools like this one and offer our free educational resources to teacher and parents who want to bring the lessons of the Tuskegee Airmen to life for their learners.
