What a day! CLE’s Patriotism assembly was amazing. We had the privilege to listen to Gold Star family members speak about their children who sacrificed their lives serving our country.Their words were both touching and inspiring. After the assembly, we had the honor to host our own Gold Star family, Mr. and Mrs. Vahaviolos, in our classroom. The children presented them with a homemade quilt, book and gift bag that displayed all of the qualities and interests that Steve, their son, possessed. Steve’s parents shared stories and answered questions about his life. It was a truly remarkable experience. Thank you to all of our parents that sent in food, drinks, decorations, and balloons!
