Honoring Our Veterans
In order to honor all veterans in our Lunenburg family, we are once again putting together a Veterans Day slideshow that highlights our family members’ and friends’ brave service to our country. We are asking that if you have a veteran among your loved ones and wish to contribute, please send us their names, a photo, their branch of service and rank, and (if you wish) a small blurb to include in this project, all of which will be shared with staff, students, and posted on our district and social media pages.
If you have already contributed to this project over the past couple of years and do not wish to change any of the submissions, there is nothing more you need to do. For any changes (new photo, etc.) or new additions, please send that information to Ms. Sandra Sheehy at ssheehy@lunenburgschools.net no later than Thursday, November 6, 2025.
Thank you!
