St. Mary’s Honors Veterans

Around the county today, several programs to honor area military veterans were given by school children.

St. Mary’s Catholic School presented an outside ceremony Friday afternoon for veterans.

Kindergarten through fifth-grade students gathered outside near the school’s flagpole to sing patriotic songs, say the pledge of allegiance, say a prayer for the veterans and then gave each veteran who attended a piece of artwork they had made.

St. Mary’s Elementary School Music Teacher, Mrs. Gorman, introduces the students to the attendees of their tribute to veterans.
The pledge of allegiance is recited by the students and the audience attending the presentation honoring veterans.
Students point to the American flag as part of the song “It’s A Grand Old Flag.”
