Veterans in the Classroom Nov 9, 2011
Attention all VFW/American Legion Veterans:
This year we will continue our very successful "Veterans in the Classroom" program at the DS Middle School. We have done this for several years and it is one of our best and most enjoyable programs.
Please put this date on your calendars: Wednesday, November 9, 2011
The time will be from about 8:30-4:00. (Classes start at 9:00 AM)
Location: Dripping Springs Middle School (old HS)
We will be in three classrooms with sixth grade students and will talk to the students about our careers and our military experiences. We will then answer questions for a short period. There will be 4-5 veterans in each class and we will try to achieve a mix of the five military branches and we will try for a mix of war era's. This is for any veteran and not just combat veterans.
Coffee and snacks will be served in the morning and the school will provide lunch for all of us. If you can come all day or for half a day, that is OK. We need to arrive at the school's main office at about 8:15 AM to check in and to get nametags. Casual dress with VFW/American Legion caps. VFW/American Legion Shirts or Polo military shirts with branch is fine. Bring pictures of your airplanes or ships, etc. to show students.
Please call or e-mail me as soon as possible to let me know if you will attend this event. We will need to get three classroom teams set up and planned.
