This morning we attended a special Veterans Day program. We were visited by Chief Wilson a member of the Navy, and Cadet Wilson who is beginning his work with the Army. They are a mother / son team who have visited Memorial for the past several years around Veterans Day. The children learned more about the five branches of the US military, including the important jobs our armed services members are doing in times of war and peace. We sang songs and learned how to stand at attention. This is always a high interest program. I hope your first grader has lots to tell you about what we learned at this program and in the classroom.
