On November 11, Ms. Rozzo's Government classes, in conjunction with Mrs. Stonestreet and Student Council, put together a breakfast to celebrate and appreciate those who had served in the military or are currently serving. The junior classes signed paper feathers with words of thanks and gratitude that art instructor Mrs. Mills used to form an eagle. There was a nice turnout of several veterans and their families to enjoy the catered Panera breakfast. During the meal, a saxophone trio led by sophomore David Suverison played "America the Beautiful". As the event closed, each veteran, including our superintendent, Mr. Carkido, signed a poster board that will be hung in the study hall.
