About:
Alongside parents and staff, students from Deer Park High School’s Patriot Club and Class of 2021 participated in a Thanksgiving dinner for veterans run by Sound of Heaven Church. Organizer Rachel Conliffe, a veteran herself, invited the students to help set up, decorate and share a meal with men and women who have served the nation.
“Our students were glad to have the opportunity to sit down and talk with the veterans, and show appreciation for their service,” said teacher Laurie Osbern.
