“Tis the Season

During the week of November 28th, elementary students at both Schaller-Crestland and Galva-Holstein Elementary Schools created Christmas Cards for disabled American Veterans during their guidance classes.  With Veteran’s Day in November, students have been made aware of the service these people have carried out for us and our country.  Christmas is a time for students to let the vets who continue to carry the scars of their sacrifices know that we remember and we appreciate them.  Included in the cards are memorable quotes honoring the vets as well as seasonal art work.  Students also included a personal “thank you.”  Cards will be mailed to the VA hospitals in  Marshalltown, Sioux Falls, and Omaha where our local vets receive care.  You can be proud of our students for taking this opportunity to give back to our soldiers.
