Thank You, Veteran's

    This morning, the students and staff of Southern Wells Community Schools took part in a program to honor Veteran's.  I am proud of the event put on this morning by our school.  But, that is the easy part!  It's such a simple act to express our appreciation.  What is difficult is the sacrifice that members of our Armed Forces, past and present make to keep us free.  The giving up of family time, sacrificing life, limb, and mental strain and many other acts of self-sacrifice that go into being in the service.  For us as a school to spend some time this morning, on Veteran's Day, to honor their sacrifice, is the least we can do. Raising up citizens to be proud of our country and honoring to those who serve it is one role we are here to serve.  I am proud to be on the staff at a school/community that values and chooses to pay tribute to those who serve and have served in our nation's Armed Forces.  May God bless you!
