A SPECIAL THANKS to Fr. Klapps and Deacon Wilber: On Veteran's Day, Fr. Klapps and Deacon Wilber both spoke to a couple of my classes about their days in the military. The students and I were amazed by their stories. Both presentations were incredible!!!
This was an excellent activity for Veteran's Day.
As a reminder, on most days I am available at lunch and recess for students who want extra help in math or social studies.
God bless,
Mr. Limmina
