Celebrate Veterans Day

Mr. Metz, Mackenzie's father, spoke to our classes about Veterans Day which will occur on November 11th. This important day is a time to celebrate our freedom and thank the many people who have served our country so we have freedom. We learned that the colors of our flag represent justice(blue),courage (red), and purity(white). Brandon shared his new learning about the flag as he experienced a flag retirement ceremony over the past weekend with the Boy Scouts. We are making cards that will be distributed at the VA hospital or given to the USO to give to veterans overseas in care packages.
