American Legion Post #1424 Poppy Poster
In honor of Memorial Day, our 7th and 8th grade students participated in the American Legion Post #1424 Poppy Poster contest. The students designed posters with the red poppy that symbolizes the remembrance of fallen military members. The posters were showcased at the Memorial Day parade. We are happy to announce that Hannah Rojas (7W) and Joanna Berrios (7H) earned 1st and 2nd Place for their grade level! Congratulations to all of our students that spent hours designing posters that were dedicated to honoring military personnel.
