Every year I have the honor of planning/organizing my school's annual Veterans Day celebration and I always try to come up with new ways to teach my students about the significance of Veterans Day while offering a meaningful and heart-felt thank you to the veterans visiting our school.
This year has been particularly exciting because I'm preparing a special slideshow tribute which includes photographs of veterans who are family members of our students and school employees. I have loved seeing the pride in the faces of the kids (and the adults, for that matter) as they deliver photographs of brothers, sisters, fathers and grandfathers, accompanied by countless stories and memories.
Don't forget to take the time to thank a Veteran this week. Take some time to dig out the old family photos and share some stories with your kids, and don't forget about the Veterans Day parade in Wenatchee!
Thank you veterans for your service to our country.
