Veterans Day Celebration 11/11/2020
Spirit, Pride and Honor
Welcome to RJ Richey's digital version of our annual Veterans Day Celebration. While Covid-19 has put a damper on so many events during 2020, we could not let this day go by without honoring our veterans! In Burnet CISD, we always strive to exude Spirit, Pride, and Honor in all that we do. Our students and staff went above and beyond showing their patriotism and love for our amazing veterans. I hope you enjoy the video and pass it on to any and all veterans within your reach.
Thank you to our students who practiced songs, made artwork, and took time to honor our veterans today! I would also like to thank Adrian Connolly, our Fine Arts teacher, for always spearheading this event. Her efforts shine through in this video.
This video would not have been possible without the efforts of several other special people. Thank you to: Phillip Malina, our Instructional Technologist, who filmed and produced the final product; Keith McBurnett, our Superintendent, for his powerful words; and BG Connie McNabb (ret), Col Daniel Steiner (ret), and SMSG Edward Torres-Mendez (ret) for their inspiration and service.
Most of all, thank you to our veterans and their families for the sacrifices you have made to ensure freedom for our citizens. Your commitment to this nation is recognized and appreciated.
