Dear Andover Veteran,

You are cordially invited to the Andover Elementary Middle School on Tuesday, November 12 at 9 AM for our Veteran’s Day Program. Our K-8 school community works together to honor our Nation’s military veterans, past and present, and it will mean a great deal to us if you can attend. This is one of the most important days in our school year.

It is imperative for our school community to educate our students on the contributions veterans have made throughout the years. We celebrate America’s veterans for keeping this Nation “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” This has become a significant event at AE/MS and one we look forward to every November.

Students will express their gratitude and respect for our veterans through musical selections, readings, art, and other presentations.

Please plan to remain after the ceremony for delicious refreshments, a group photo and a chance to visit with other veterans. The eighth grade students will once again serve coffee, juices, and delicious snacks in our Eagle Cafe.

I hope that you will join us on November 12 at 9 AM We look forward to seeing you!

Principal Jane Slayton, AE/MS staff, and AE/MS students
