My school is on a military post. Almost of all of our kids (except a handful who come because their parent works there) are in military families. That makes Veterans Day a big day for us. Tomorrow, the actual Veterans Day, is a holiday for the kids so we celebrated today.
We had an assembly with our choir (I don’t think I’ve heard a choir concert since COVID and today was a treat), some Buffalo Soldier reenactors, and some performers from the U.S. Army Band. We also went through several stations in the afternoon, including learning about a service dog, folding flags, learning to march, and checking out some military equipment. It was a long day but a surprisingly good one.
