Whether you teach history in a classroom, mentor youth in extracurriculars, or homeschool at the dinner table, you know how crucial it is to help young people understand the “why” behind American liberty.
Heritage Academy is excited to host our semiannual Making of America Seminar on September 26, 2026! While this event is open to the entire community, it is specially tailored to equip anyone who teaches, parents, or mentors the next generation.

Why This Seminar Matters Now More Than Ever

Article 2, Section 1 of the Arizona Constitution reminds us:
“A frequent recurrence to fundamental principles is essential to the security of individual rights and the perpetuity of free government.”
Teaching these principles isn’t just a requirement—it’s an opportunity to inspire youth with timeless truths of human freedom and self-governance.
Our objective is simple: To explore the Founders’ principles of free government and share practical ways to integrate them into any subject or learning environment.

What You’ll Discover

During this impactful session, we will break down:
  • 🏛️ The 15 Foundational Principles underlying the founding of America
  • 🏛️ The 7 Structural Principles providing the framework for our nation
