About:
On Nov. 7, Amityville Memorial High School proudly hosted its annual Veterans Appreciation Day celebration, honoring local service members and fostering meaningful conversations between students and veterans.
Throughout the day, the high school’s Social Studies classes welcomed veterans from the community who shared their personal stories and experiences of military service. Students engaged in thoughtful discussions, gaining a deeper understanding of the sacrifices and commitments made by those who serve.
In addition to the classroom visits, school staff and district administrators met with the veterans to express their gratitude and appreciation for their dedication to our country. The day concluded with the school’s traditional Veterans Appreciation Day luncheon, held in the school library, where our special guests gathered to enjoy a meal and celebrate the values of service, community, and respect.
Amityville Memorial High School extends its sincere thanks to all veterans for their service and to everyone who helped make this year’s event a success.
