Veteran's Day

We made cards to say Thank you to the soldiers and veterans that have helped to protect us and keep us safe.  The children talked about many other people that help to keep us safe too.
Mom's and Dad's
Doctor's
Policemen
Teacher's
Nana's, Grandma's and Grandpa's
and more



We brought some of our cards to Mrs. Costa in her office and some to Mrs. B and Mrs. M in the office. Some of the children brought their items for Operation Gratitude to the office too.  Thank you to those who have already donated.  I added Mrs. Costa's list of items for care packages below.

Operation Gratitude!


About Operation Gratitude
"Operation Gratitude annually sends 150,000+ care packages filled with snacks, entertainment, hygiene and hand-made items, plus personal letters of appreciation to Veterans, New Recruits, First Responders, Wounded Warriors, Care Givers and to individually named U.S. Service Members deployed overseas. Our mission is to lift the spirits and meet the evolving needs of our Active Duty and Veteran communities, and provide volunteer opportunities for all Americans to say "Thank You" to members of our Military. Each package contains donated product valued at $75-100 and costs the organization $15 to assemble and ship. Since its inception in 2003, Operation Gratitude volunteers have shipped more than One Million Care Packages."
We will be accepting wrapped candy and oral hygiene products, in the office at Steward School until Tuesday, November 10th. 

Thank you.
