Message from the Principal
It is important kids understand the significance behind Memorial Day. Memorial Day is to honor those who have protected the freedom of this country. It is important to know the history of Memorial Day. Memorial Day goes all the way back to 1866, right after the nation was recovering from the Civil war. Both the North and the South saw soldiers coming home with serious injuries and many towns had lost friends and loved ones. In Waterloo, New York, a drugstore owner named Henry Welles came up with the idea that on the same day all the shops would close down to honor those who had been killed during the war. It was May 5th that everyone in the town went to the graves of those in the local cemetery and put out flowers and crosses on their graves. A similar ceremony was planned by Retired Major General Jonathan A. Logan, which was for soldiers that had survived the Civil War. He took veterans through town to decorate the graves of comrades with flags.
