Veterans Day honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace — dead or alive — although it's largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices. It was originally called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War I
Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, when the Armistice with Germany went into effect. At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.
You can Wear red, white and blue. The simple gesture of wearing patriotic colors can pay tribute. It'll also create conversation among peers and give you an opportunity to remind everyone that it's Veterans Day.
Mahalo to all our parents who are Veterans - We thank you for your service!!

In an effort to support clear parent communication for Special Education services during this time, the Exceptional Services Branch put together a resource page for parents and schools, including a wonderful video for parents explaining special education services, contingency plans, COVID-19 impact services and more. Please take the time to review this information and video.
