This Sunday, Nov. 11 marks Veterans Day and all this week many Jeffco schools and students will set aside times in their school days to observe and honor military veterans and their families.

Scheduled school events will serve as expressions of gratitude to those veterans who have served and continue to serve our country.

Schools and community organizations have worked together to create patriotic tributes to include flag raisings, color guard presentations, “Wall of Honor” tributes and musical performances.

Many schools have also invited veterans to speak and share their experiences with students.
