A knife slipped off the kitchen table – ouch!  A nasty wound, quickly dressed by a fellow Eagle trained in minor first aid.

That evening, parents informed us their brave Eagle insisted on coming to campus the next morning, though they were sure she needed to stay off her feet.

The next morning our young hero climbed the stairs, one difficult step at a time.

Bravery under fire.  At Acton Academy, perhaps even more important than reading, writing and arithmetic.
