Duty to the Nation?

This first nine-week's focus will be on this essential question:  What is an individual's duty to the nation?  To help us answer this question, our English class will take a journey through several of our presidents' and other noted activists' speeches.


Remember, President Kennedy's now famous words:  "My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."  Ponder on this question.  Think about President Kennedy's words.  How might you respond to his statement or our class's essential question?

Now draft your thoughts in response to this question:  What is an individual's duty to the nation?
