Dear Berner Families,
As we prepare to observe Veterans Day on Wednesday, November 11, we invite everyone to wear red, white, and blue tomorrow (November 10) as a tribute to the courageous men and women who have served in our nation's Armed Forces.
Veterans have dedicated themselves to protecting our country and preserving the freedoms we enjoy every day. Wearing our nation's colors is a simple yet meaningful way to express our gratitude for their service and sacrifice. We hope all students and staff will join us in this special show of appreciation and respect. Together, let's fill our hallways with red, white, and blue as we honor those who have served our country.
Thank you for helping us recognize and celebrate our veterans.
