Veteran's Day
Veteran's Day is coming soon. Our second graders will be performing for Veteran's Day this year. We are planning to add a small presentation to our performance. If there is a veteran in your child's life, please send a picture to younginfo@sdale.org. Include the veteran's name, student's name and student's grade. All photos need to be sent in by Monday, November 7th. If you remember having a slide in last year's presentation and want to use the same one, email me the name and I will look for it. You are invited to attend The Veteran's Day assembly on Thursday, November 10th at 6:00PM. All Veteran's are welcome!
