As we approach Veterans Day, I want to thank you for supporting this message. The ceremony this year is planned for Tuesday, Nov 11th at 9:00AM and for the theme we will hear from three Air Force Veterans (one is Randell Yi, a 2003 WV Alum and the others are the parents of WV Senior, Desmond Stribley. Please support this program as best as possible.
Veterans Tribute Wall: From the dates Nov 3rd to Nov 14th we will have on display our Veteran Tribute Wall in the atrium. This wall displays pictures along with service information for those Veterans and Soldiers within our community that have served their country. We take great honor in knowing that these individuals have served to protect our freedoms. If you would like to have information for you or a veteran you know on display, please send a picture along with service information of branch, rank, and dates to Christine_Cast@ipsd.org

Items can be dropped in the atrium, just inside door 1 of WVHS beginning anytime this week and next.
Operation Support Our Troops is a Waubonsie Valley High School's effort to bring some bits of comfort to deployed servicemen and women who are currently deployed. From the dates of Nov 1st until Nov 15th we will, as a school community, collected donated snack items to be sent by the Naperville branch of Operation Support Our Troops to troops currently in the field. We pair these donated items with letters written by our students that express gratitude for their service. Last year, we sent just over 1100 pounds of snacks and donated items. That equated to 42 boxes. Join us to surpass that milestone!
Post Assembly Activities: These are OPTIONAL, Use all or none...up to you!
The American Flag Good info, but not the most gripping.
