Historically, Memorial Day was recognized on May 30th. Over the course of the years, the holiday has been changed to be observed on the last Monday in May. It is the tradition at New Boston Central School to recognize Memorial Day on or near May 30th. If we were in the New Boston Central School building, we would have our traditional Memorial Day presentation today.
During this presentation, members of our community would be recognized for their service to our country. Members of our community would share the meaning of Memorial Day and the history of how it was first known as Decoration Day. Each grade level would have shared songs that honor a branch of the military. Thank you to all who have served. In today's lessons, I have tried to bring you a bit of what we would have experienced as a school community. In today's 10:00 Zoom we will share the Virtual Memorial Day presentation that has been created by the administration at N.B.C.S. I will also have our flag projects from last week. Those who would like to share their flags are welcome to do so. Remember, today is a Spirit Day. You are welcome to come to ZOOM in Red, White, and/or Blue! Comments are closed.
