DAYTON–Senior and Junior High School students honored veterans during a Thursday afternoon assembly held in the gymnasium.
Many high school students were still recovering from the homecoming activities and dance of last week, and welcomed the shortened schedule due to Veteran's Day on Friday. To honor those who are or have served, been injured, or died during their tours, the Middle School (MS) Associated Student Body (ASB) planned an assembly for the whole Dayton School District.
During the afternoon of Thursday, November 9, the MS ASB President Georgia Reser opened the ceremony, followed by the Vice-President who led the audience in the "Pledge of Allegiance". The elementary school students sane "The Star-Spangled Banner" then the high school student duo Jaelynn Chapman and Carson Potter amazingly performed "America the Beautiful." To wrap up the Veteran's Day assembly, the MS ASB explained what Veteran's Day is and the MS band performed the "Victors March."
