ALWAYS REMEMBER!




ALWAYS REMEMBERED....
Our 8th grade students had their own Memorial Day service in memory of the fallen soldiers in Iraq. The 8th graders have been making a chain since the war began...each year the 8th grade class adds to the chain. Today they took the chain down and wound it around the parking lot in rememberance of all of the soldiers in Iraq that have given their lives so that we can be safe. It was very touching to see the kids standing silently holding the chain.

  1. What a way to make the deaths of these fallen heros real. It is sad when you see that each link is a human being, someones son, daughter, brother , sister, nephew, niece, grandson, granddaughter, husband, wife and so on and so on.
    It's sad but we all have have to rememeber they do it willingly for us. Again Thank you to all our Vets!!!
