Veterans Day Reflection 2020: Veterans Day

Veterans Day 2020

Veterans Day Reflection activity

  • Watch the 1 min 17 sec video about Veterans Day
  • Spend a few minutes exploring the Lewis HS Veterans Day Tribute (separate tab)
    • Almost all of the names included within the stripes of the flag are names contributed by students faculty and staff of Lewis HS in remembrance of family members and friends who have served or are currently serving in the United States military.
    • Each name is linked to a video, photo or a written tribute about the veteran.
Students: If you are unable to view the links to the names in the flag this link will take you to a folder within the FCPSSCHOOLS.NET walled garden and you should be able to view all of the information contained in the Veterans Day flag tribute.
