A banner honoring late conservative activist Charlie Kirk has been installed outside the U.S. Department of Education’s headquarters in Washington as part of a display commemorating figures recognized for their influence on American education ahead of the nation’s 250th anniversary.

The banner is one of several recently placed on prominent federal buildings in the capital as part of preparations for the upcoming America 250 celebration, marking the United States’ semiquincentennial.
