Honoring our Great-Hearted Veterans Facebook Twitter Email This Post Great Hearts Academies November 10, 2025 On this Veteran’s Day, we are privileged to count among our faculty and staff the men and women who have worn the uniform of our nation’s armed forces. Their courage, discipline, and devotion to service embody the same virtues we cultivate in the minds and hearts of our students. Today, we are honored to share the stories of those who have served and who now continue their vocation of service through education. Their example reminds us that the heart of both soldiering and teaching lies in self-sacrifice, placing others before oneself for the sake of truth, freedom, and the flourishing of others.
