The Second Grade delivered a big "Thank You" note from the elementary school to the Valley Falls Pharmacy for the school supplies donated to VF area students. Every student and teacher signed the card in Art class. Besides loving their facial expressions, we appreciate our staff who are helping them express thankfulness to others.
The gym was full of happy faces and lots of energy this morning! We also had a special presentation by our VF Auxiliary 's Chaplain & Youth Chairman, Ardith Spencer, and Kay Gibbens, President. Today is POW/MIA Recognition Day. It is the only official national day of observance dedicated entirely to honoring Americans who were prisoners of war or remain missing and unaccounted for - from all conflicts, in all theaters, and from every branch of service. Do you know that 81,000 Americans are still missing? Efforts continue to recover remains from various conflicts. We thank our veterans for their service and pay tribute to those who never returned home.
Don't forget that Valley Match Day begins tomorrow! Large to small donations make a difference and are matched, which doubles the impact your dollars can make.

Today is Constitution and Citizenship Day. This day commemorates the September 17, 1787 signing of the United States Constitution. Our day started with raising the flag outside and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Students then moved into the gym for more Constitution education and several elementary students recited a portion of the Preamble.
Many thanks to our local Grahem-Herbers VFW Post 3084 for their leadership and involvement this morning. We appreciate our veterans!
