Mr. Mathewson’s 8th-grade social studies classes welcomed a special guest today—Kevin Driesbach, President of the Camp Charlotte Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution. Mr. Driesbach shared the mission of the organization, which honors Revolutionary War patriots by promoting patriotism, serving communities, and inspiring future generations through education about the nation’s founding principles.
Students had the opportunity to see authentic uniforms and gear up close, bringing history to life in the classroom. It offered a glimpse into our country’s early stories while connecting the experiences of patriots to our Pickaway County community. Thank you, Mr. Driesbach, for sharing your knowledge with us!
