EWS Middle School Teacher and Veteran Kirk O'Neal would like to invite any Veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces and their spouses from the EWS Middle School community to our special Veteran's Day Kallah at 9 a.m. on Friday, November 9.

 

If you or a member of your family are a Veteran and would like to be recognized at our special Kallah, please email Mr. O'Neal with the veteran's name, branch of service, the war and/or years served and how they are related to an Emery/Weiner Middle School student.

If there are family members who are Veterans and who cannot attend, please send Mr. O'Neal as much information as possible so he can still acknowledge them.
