Dear Families,
Today we learned about Veteran's Day by reading a book by Eve Bunting, The Wall. We had a discussion about the importance of honoring those who served for our country. Many students in our class know someone who served or is serving currently in the military. Thank you for discussion with your child about the importance of this important day!
