Please join us in teaching our students the importance of celebrating our country’s heroes. At the same time, we would like to help our students remember, they too, can serve their community, display honor, and be courageous just like our veterans.
We honor and express gratitude to the brave men and women in all armed forces who served and/or continue to serve our county.
Dedicate a flag to a veteran in your life. We will proudly display your veteran’s flag in our Field of Flags display for our special Veteran’s Day Tribute at George White Elementary School on Thursday, November 6th at 7:45am. Come early- parking can be tricky!
$6/flag
Due: No later than November 3rd **Any late submissions may be installed after Veteran’s Day **
Do you know a veteran who would like to join us in greeting our students at drop-off and stay for our flagpole assembly on Thursday, 11/7? Have them (or help them) email veteran@gwpta.org
Have your child write a THANK YOU card for a veteran!
- Give the THANK YOU card to a vet when they arrive to school on 11/6
- Mail it to a special vet you know
- Use it as a random act of kindness and give it to a vet you know in our community
Allow your student time to complete the “Service Honor Courage” worksheet. Help him/her think about ways they already serve their community, or show honor, or act in a courageous way. All completed work will be on display throughout the hallways, proving that our kids too, like our vets, can serve, have honor, and be courageous too! Handouts must be returned by Nov 4th to be on display before Veteran’s Day.
