When 16-year-old Tyler Soden saw smoke pouring from a neighbor’s house and heard children screaming for help, he didn’t freeze—he acted. With no special training, just bravery and a ladder, Tyler rescued a mother and her kids trapped on the roof of their burning home. This lesson shares Tyler’s real-life story and invites students to explore what it truly means to be courageous. Along the way, they’ll reflect on the power of humility, the responsibility of citizenship, and how everyday actions—big or small—can make someone a hero. It’s a moving reminder that anyone, at any age, can change a life.
