Veterans Day: Important Information
Monday, November 11th, 2019
We Are Excited to Honor Our Veterans!
The Stonegate students and staff look forward to celebrating our American heroes tomorrow, Monday, November 11th, 2019
Our program will begin promptly at 9:30 AM in our SGE Gymnasium.
*NEW!* VETERANS APPRECIATION WALK
As our Veterans enter the building through door #10 (parking and entrance details below), we respectfully request they all please enter our music room prior to the start of our program. There will be light refreshments, drinks, and chairs in this area. The music room is located right by door #10.
At 9:30, a few students and staff will signal our honored guests to please make a line as they exit this room. They will be escorted into our gymnasium for an APPRECIATION WALK at the start of our program.
WHAT IS THE APPRECIATION WALK? We will have a few classrooms lined up in an aisle-way formation for our Veterans to walk down right as they enter the gymnasium. Patriotic tunes and students waving flags will greet our Veterans as a way to immediately recognize them and thank them for their service. This will also allow our students to have a better view of our special guests. Our Veterans will be led to a reserved seating area at the end of our Appreciation Walk. Bleachers and chairs will be available in this reserved area.
This is optional, but we do hope many of our Veterans will choose to enter this way so we can start off by celebrating their tremendous sacrifice to our nation!
