Veterans in the schools

Veterans are welcomed to the school by breakfast from the SBOs

The long-standing tradition of having Morgan veterans visit the school classrooms, continued this year, despite not having school on Veterans Day.

Morgan Middle School not only had veterans visit their classrooms Nov. 4 to talk about their military experience, they held their Veterans Day assembly in which not only veterans but the community is invited to. Every student in the school participates in this assembly whether it be through spoken word or song. This year’s guest speaker was Colonel Jim Brown.

To avoid conflicting with MMS’s assembly, Morgan High School and Mountain Green Middle School invited the veterans to their schools prior to the event. 

MHS SBOs hosted their traditional breakfast for Veterans on Friday, Nov. 8. 

MGMS enjoys hosting veterans in the classroom every year. On Nov. 7, students were given the   opportunity to hear how these veterans served their countries and provide the freedoms Americans have. λ
