A special Veteran`s Day message from Superintendent LaMont Cole. 🇺🇸
❤️💙“Thank you for your service” was a common refrain from Woodlawn Elementary students during the school’s Veterans Day program on Tuesday.
Students honored attending veterans with salutes, poems, songs and a touching slideshow that recognized Woodlawn’s family veterans.
The guest speaker, GilbertJohnson, an 82-year-old U.S. Army veteran, spoke with students about the importance of lessons he first learned in the military: discipline, learning, and leadership. ❤️💙
