Focus Area Second Grade: Veterans and Active Duty Military

Our students learn about the important historic and present day role that the military has played in our country, and they gain an awareness of their civic duties and responsibilities.  The second graders have participated in a number of activities this year.  They wrote paragraphs on the topic “What is a Veteran?’ for our school-wide Veterans Day Assembly.  They made cards for WWII veterans who participated in Honor Flight, and also sent items to military personnel via the Adopt-A-Platoon program.  For pictures please visit the Saints Serving Photo Gallery.
