It is tradition to celebrate Veteran’s Day (Tuesday, November 11th) at Blackwell. Leading up to Veteran’s Day, students will participate in singing patriotic songs and learning important details about why we honor this day. On Veteran’s Day students will be participating in activities and watching a slideshow to honor and thank all the veterans related to Blackwell students and staff. 

• If you have a family member who has proudly served our country, and would like them to be honored on this day, please complete this google form by Friday, October 31st. Veterans will be recognized in a slideshow presentation and their picture and information will also be printed and posted on the wall at Blackwell. If you have previously submitted a veteran’s information, there is no need to resubmit.
