Friday, Opequon hosted over 40 Veterans for a school-wide performance honoring those who have served and those who continue to serve in our military. Students sang multiple patriotic songs, waved flags, and lined the halls thanking each person for the service they've provided to the United States. Our staff as well as our PTO donated brunch items that were enjoyed by our guests. It was a beautiful celebration and tribute to our United States Military men and women. Thank you for your service!
