Veterans Day: Honoring Our Heroes in the

Community and School District Who Served

Lighthouse Elementary School students and staff came together in a heartwarming ceremony to honor the brave men and women who have served our nation. The Veterans Day event was a truly beautiful and moving day full of song and celebration, that recognized the sacrifices of our veterans.

It was an incredible opportunity for the school community to express its deep gratitude and teach the next generation the importance of service and sacrifice.

Additionally, the School District held its annual Veterans Day ceremony at the Fulton-Holland Educational Services Center to celebrate the people in the District who answered the call to serve.
