ry year, we take this week to highlight some efforts your parent group or your school can get involved in to honor veterans and/or show your support for our military personnel.
It moves us every year to see retired veterans speaking at our schools, and these days it's likely that you have veterans, even several, among the parent population at your school. Your efforts to honor and educate can serve your school, your community, and our country well.
Check this comprehensive list of military support programs . Hopefully your group can find a way to send your own support or get connected with one or several soldiers.
