Honoring our heroes one card at a time! Our student government teamed up with younger grades to create heartfelt cards for our veterans. It was a joy to present these tokens of appreciation, along with goodie bags filled with treats, to two special veterans. Huge thanks to Mrs. Peterson’s father and cousin for joining us and sharing their stories with our curious students. Together, we’re building connections and celebrating those who’ve served! 🇺🇸✨ #VeteransDay #CommunitySpirit
