Heartfelt gratitude and support for our veterans ... And, for those not able to attend the event at Orchard Hills, the students wrote letters to 'Dear Veteran' that were delivered to the V.A. hospital that afternoon. A beautiful event ...
Our visit to Orchard Hills was a wonderful way to conclude our Veterans Day tour across the district! Students and staff welcomed more than 60 veterans from the school community with songs, readings, and an assembly. Wonderful!
We gather together in celebration of Veterans Day, 2022.

Principal Shannan Carlson got things started for the ESMS Veterans Day assembly - incorporating readings, songs, recognitions and photos. A beautiful tribute to our vets ... thank you East Shore for reminding us the importance of this day.
Dozens of guest veterans enjoyed some delicious treats before a Veterans Day assembly at East Shore Middle School, courtesy of the school's PTA. Thank you for your service!
What a beautiful tribute to our veterans this afternoon at Meadowside. Amidst songs, poems, readings -- and a few tears (the 'God Bless the U.S.A.' rendition was, in a word, beautiful) -- we are yet again reminded how lucky we are. Great job, Meadowside!
Meadowside Elementary honored the veterans in their school community today - first with goodies in the Media Center, followed by an all-school assembly honoring their guests. Thank you for your service, Meadowside vets!
Students recited 'America's White Table' today at the Academy; everyone enjoyed a meal and treats prepared by the Academy's culinary student team; then posed for one final group picture to make the day complete. Great job, Academy, and thank you to our guest visitors today!
The Academy conducted its Veterans Day activities today -- and were honored with three guest veteran visitors. Students and teachers intently listened to their guests' stories and were able to pose additional questions. It was an incredible learning experience -- for everyone.
