Veterans Day

Dear Fabulous Vista Verde Community!

Our school would love to send letters to Veterans in honor of Veterans Day. Some classes will be writing letters during the instructional day, however it would be wonderful to write one at home as well. For the salutation please have students use “Dear Hero” . It would be great to have them finished and turned into room 1 by November 6th to allow time for mailing them.

Thank you!!!

Patricia Farquhar
