On Nov. 9, Idle Hour Elementary held a special Veterans Day tribute, featuring 20 veterans who also happen to be family members of students and faculty.

Throughout the ceremony, the third, fourth and fifth grade chorus and band sang and performed patriotic songs. Several fifth graders read essays that they wrote, thanking veterans.

A member of the Blue Star Mothers was presented with a box of donations that will be sent overseas to active military members.

Lastly, each veteran in attendance was recognized and given a flower and card from their loved ones and the assembly ended with a slideshow, sharing pictures of the Idle Hour students and their veteran family members.
