Happy Veteran's Day!


A salute to all veterans everywhere!  Our school is really having a celebration.  We have invited veterans to a thank-you breakfast.  Then we will have an assembly.  The veterans march in and sit in a place of honor. We have a speaker and we'll finish with music and a flag-raising ceremony that features a flag flown over Washington, D.C.  Lots of fun, and it is always nice to see the appreciation by the veterans.  If you are lucky enough to have the day off, ENJOY!

It was originally Armistice Day because they believed it was the "war to end ALL wars" but sadly we have had many and Roosevelt renamed it Veterans Day to include all vets not just WWl.
