Happy Veterans Day
BHJH is so thankful for our Veterans and we see the importance of spending some time today to teach our students the meaning and a bit of History regarding Veterans Day. The students will be going over things such as, the different branches of the military and what they do, the motto of the Department of Veterans Affairs, and how Veterans Day started. Each teacher has a different lesson.
