VETERANS DAY PROGRAM – 2024
Ox Ridge will continue the tradition of our Veterans Day program this year on Tuesday November 12th. We look forward to paying tribute to all the veterans in our families and broader community – past, present, near and far – with an in-person program. Our goal is to continue to develop a deep appreciation amongst students for our country and the veterans who have sacrificed so much for our safety and freedoms.
How to participate:
If any of the veterans in your life are able to join us in-person that day, please contact us by Monday October 21st by emailing oxridgepto@gmail.com with the Subject Line “Veterans Day 2024”. We will have our veterans participate in a brief Q&A panel with our students as we have done in the past. If you have a veteran or active duty service member in your family, or if you know a veteran who you would like to honor by having their biography and picture displayed in school, please complete the digital form below by October 21st. The photos and biographies will be posted in the pod area for each grade.
*Please note: If you have submitted your veteran’s biographical information before, it is not necessary to do so again*
If you are able to volunteer your time, either with set up before, during, or after the celebration or in preparation for the event, please contact us at oxridgepto@gmail.com. Please also keep an eye out for some volunteer sign up opportunities in future editions of the Hoot over the next few weeks. Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to honoring our country’s heroes once again!
