Honoring Our Heroes
As many of you know, Veterans Day is November 11th. This is a day to remember and recognize our heroes who have fought for our freedom. Here at Deerfield Elementary, we are proud to honor those who have served in the Armed Forces and those who continue to serve today. For the month of November, we would like to honor some of our very own heroes.
Do you have a friend or family member that has or is currently serving in the Armed Forces? If so, we would love for you to send in a picture of your hero for us to display in the foyer for the month of November. If interested, send in a photo of your hero wearing their uniform or of them with your child/family. Please also include a short description of your hero including their name and their branch of service. Print your child’s name and the name of their classroom teacher on the back of the photo so that we can return the picture to you at the end of the month.
Please send in your photo to your child’s classroom teacher or to the office by Tuesday, November 8th to allow enough time for the display to be created. Be sure to at least include the name of the Veteran and the Deerfield student(s) name who they are connected with. You might also want to include other information - the branch of service, locations of service, etc. Thank you for your time and a special thanks to all who have served and those who are currently serving!
