Veteran's Day

Veteran's Day is this Thursday, November 11. Veteran’s Day is a day to celebrate all the men and women who serve or have served in our armed forces. Previously called Armistice Day, the day was declared a holiday by president Woodrow Wilson in the year 1919. At Life School we honour our veterans by commemorating the staff and student family members  who have served or are currently serving through speeches and videos of them. It is usually a tradition for a family member of a veteran or service member to wear a medal or patch of their families to honor them and their service. Veteran’s Day is an important holiday for us as Americans to show our appreciation to our service members. Just remember, you shouldn’t only honor service members and veterans just on November 11, but every day.
