Dear Prairie View Families and Friends,
As Veteran’s Day approaches, it is our desire to honor the men and women who
have served so faithfully in our armed forces.
Veteran’s Day plays a special part in my life since my dad served in the
U.S. army for over 20 years. As part of
our upcoming Veteran’s Day assemblies, we would like to present a slideshow
honoring members of our armed forces, both past and present from our community.
If you would like to help with this project, please send a photo of a
family member or friend (in uniform if possible) who has served or is currently
serving in any branch of the U.S. armed forces.
Clearly label your picture with the name, branch and relationship to
your Prairie View student. Digital pictures would be preferred! Please send your pictures via email to melanie.wiser@mead354.org. If you submit a paper copy of a photo, please send
it to school with YOUR CHILD’S NAME so these precious pictures can be returned.
We also ask that you include a phone number on the back of the photo in
case we have any questions. Please do not send any “heirloom” or
“irreplaceable” photos with students.
At our assembly, students will sing patriotic songs and listen to
a story told by our very own PV veteran’s. Students are welcome to invite
family or friends who are veterans to join us in recognizing Veteran’s Day on
Tuesday, November 10th, at either 10 a.m. with our primary students
(AM-K, 1, 2, and 3) or at 2:00 p.m. with our intermediate students (PM-K, 4, 5,
and 6).
Thank you in advance for your assistance with this special
project. Don’t forget to submit photos right away as the deadline is
Wednesday, November 6th. Photos must arrive at school no later
than this date to be included in the slideshow.
Please feel free to contact
me with any questions.
Melanie Wiser
