Annually, on November 11th, America takes the day to honor and remember the courageous people who have served our country. Our school is hosting a Veteran’s Day Assembly on Thursday November 9th. There are five speakers scheduled to talk about their personal experiences in service and their contributions to our community.
Mr. Bertani, one of the organizers of the program, says it’s a spin off of what Project 18 was doing with the message of “We All Serve.”
People featured in the assembly include district personnel Bob Reger (U.S. Navy), high school principal Dr. David Palmer (U.S. Army), Chief of School Police Officer Len Lander (U.S. Air Force), teacher Mr. Ken Stough (U.S. Army), and student Logan Bryner who is enlisting in the marines.
This assembly will highlight how these individuals continue to serve each day in our Hempfield Area community.
