As we reflect on this week, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our staff and students for their thoughtful contributions to today’s Remembrance Day ceremony. It was a meaningful and respectful event that allowed us all to honor those who have served and sacrificed for our country. Thank you to everyone involved for helping to create such a memorable experience.
