Thank You to Our Soldiers

To practice our patriotism in guidance this week, we wrote letters to hospitalized soldiers, giving thanks to those who have gotten injured in the line of duty as they served to keep us safe and free.

One of our Westwood students has a grandfather who has the privilege of working with these heroes, and he told us that he hears over and over again that they would return to the service if they could. That's dedication, that's heroism, that's citizenship in action! So we honor them today and show our appreciation for them with our hand-drawn pictures and our warm wishes.

We thank Lori McDonald for planting the seed for this project and for delivering the fruits of our labor on her Thanksgiving break. We are also grateful to our PTO moms who graciously gave up their time on Tuesday to help monitor and assist our students in this large-group gathering.
