Chief Example for Others (CEO) Character Trait for November: Honesty and Integrity
Veteran’s Day
On Monday, November 11, we will be honoring our Veterans in a few ways:
- Please share with us a copy of a picture of a family member who has served (or is serving) in any military branch by Tuesday, November 5. We will be displaying these pictures for Veteran’s Day on Monday, November 11.
- Please include your family member’s: Name, Military Branch, Years of Service, Relationship to your Student (including your Student’s Name)
- Please send the picture and information with your student or email it to: heidi.sanger@canyonsdistrict.org (If you have sent this information in the past, you can let Heidi know by responding to this message and she will make sure to include your veteran in the display).
- We would also like to invite any veterans as well as current service members to a special brief recognition at our assemblies that day. If your student is in grades K-2, they would come at 1:15 for our 1:25pm assembly. If your student is in grades 3-5, they would come at about 2:05 for our 2:15pm assembly. Please notify Heidi Sanger if your veteran will be attending so we can be prepared!
