The meaning of Veterans Day is an important part of the learning
process for the students of CUSD #20. Each year we are proud
to celebrate our veterans. Our celebration will have to be different
this year because of the restrictions that are a part of our lives right now.
To show respect and admiration to our heroes who have served our country,
CUSD #20 will be placing flags on the grounds of each school. Each student
will plant a flag to represent those who have served, past and present.
We encourage all veterans to drive by each school and know this
is our way of honoring your great service.
You can see the flags by driving west on Cedar Street, past Parkview.
At Parkside, you can enter the grounds through the north driveway,
on Cedar Street, and exit by the football stadium. From there, you
can cross Porter Avenue and enter Lawrenceville High School grounds,
then exit out the driveway by SipIt on James Street. The flags will be
visible by the end of the day on Monday November 9th. The viewing
route will be open Tuesday November 10th and Wednesday November 11th.
All the teachers, staff and students of CUSD #20 want to show respect
and gratitude to our amazing veterans. We thank you for your service
and we hope you enjoy our flag display to honor you on Veterans Day.
