About:
Rushmore Avenue fourth graders in Jacqueline Gardiner’s class recently participated in a Valentines for Veterans service project. Students brainstormed words to describe America’s military and drafted valentine letters to thank veterans for their service. Each student then revised and edited their letters before rewriting final copies. The letters were delivered to the Theodore Roosevelt Executive and Legislative Building in Garden City to distribute to local veterans for Valentine’s Day.
