Happy Veterans Day from Bureau Valley! We had a great turnout this morning at our High School Program. The program started off with a welcome from BVHS Principal, Mr. Price, and the Pledge of Allegiance led by the Junior High Student Council President, Aiden Litherland. The Band and Choir performed several patriotic pieces and the poem "11th Hour, 11th Day, 11th Month" was recited by High School Student Council President, Camryn York. Three students gave Voice of Democracy speeches and our Student Council put together a multimedia presentation. The program was concluded with a tribute to local veterans and active duty military personnel. Kaleb Workman played tabs following a brief moment of silence. Alaina Wasilewski, Student Council Vice President, gave the closing remarks. Thank you to all Veterans and active duty Military for your service!





Thank you to all our Veterans!
