Veterans Day Celebrated at SPS
In celebration of Veterans Day, several SPS schools honored our country's veterans with songs and appreciation assemblies.
Robberson Community School held an assembly on Friday, Nov. 8. Students shared the names of nearly 20 veterans in attendance and where they served. Robberson has held this assembly for 20 years and continues to add personal touches to the event.
This year, Robberson’s speaker was Sgt. Aaron Coleman. Sgt. Coleman did his student teaching at Robberson as a non-traditional student earning his teaching degree. The event began by reciting the Pledge of Allegiance together, then the students sang several patriotic songs and, in closing, principal Kevin Huffman joined second- and third-grade students to sing a song about being proud to be an American.
