Veterans Day Patriotic Performance 11/9
Volunteers needed!
We would like to welcome our veterans to join us on Friday, November 9th from 12:30pm-1:45pm to celebrate Veteran's Day. Our veterans will visit the classrooms to speak a little about their time in service, the importance of their service to our country, and answer some questions from the students. The children LOVE this event and it's imperative to us to share the importance of the job our brave men and women do for us. Please let Miss Maltas know if you or someone you know is interested in joining us on this day.
