Veterans Day Parade

This year our kindergarten and first grade students celebrated Veterans Day with a parade by the veterans from our local VFW.  First grade students sang Old Glory for the veterans who came in from the parade.  There is nothing more powerful than children's voices lifted in song.  When the children were ready to leave the rotunda, the veterans lined up and "high fived" or shook the hands of every first grader.  This was such a powerful and personal event for the students.
