Dear Holly Grove ES Families, Friends, and Guests:
We are pleased to announce that our annual Memorial Day Celebration will take place this year on Friday, May 23, 2025 at 9:30 am. This holiday observance seeks to help students understand the sacrifices that have been made for our freedoms. We especially want to remember your loved ones who have paid the ultimate price in service to our country. You're invited to submit names for our Memorial Wall and Thank You Banners using the form below. Read on to learn more about our program and how you can participate.
Sincerely,
The Memorial Day Committee
Holly Grove Elementary - Honor, Service and Sacrifice
Holly Grove Elementary - Honor, Service and Sacrifice
Please join us to honor and remember the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. This year's Memorial Day Celebration and observance will be presented on Friday, May 23rd on the campus grounds. The event will begin sharply at 9:30 am.
We ask your help in teaching our students about honor, service, and sacrifice. There are two ways to help. First is by submitting the names of those service members you know that we can recognize and honor (Honoree Form). Second, you can join us for this outdoor event as your attendance helps provide a powerful model of the gratitude and appreciation we seek to develop in our students. (RSVP Here)
The names we collect of service members who died in any of America's conflicts will find a place of honor on our Memorial Wall and will be read aloud during the program. Names of veterans and active duty service members will be placed on banners to be signed and decorated by students.
To submit names: You may find it helpful to gather some information beforehand: name, rank/title (if known), branch, conflict (if the member was killed in action), then select the Honoree Form link below. You will submit one name per form, but you may submit multiple forms. Photos are also welcomed and may be sent via email with the subject line: HGESMemDay Hero to Ms. Suttenfield ESuttenfield@wcpss.net. Deadline to submit names is Monday, May 19th.
We thank you for taking the time to help make this a memorable learning experience for our students.
~ Thank you from the Memorial Day Committee ~
