Monday, November 11, is Veterans Day. All students are required to wear Formal Dress on Veterans Day. Part of the Eagle Ridge Academy vision statement is that Eagle Ridge Academy will offer an academically rigorous, time-tested, Classical liberals arts curriculum that fosters an appreciation for the United States of America and her unique role in the world. On Veterans Day, we want our students to understand what it means to be a Veteran and to honor the selfless sacrifice that so many have made for our freedoms.
Grades 2-12 will attend Veterans Day assemblies in the ERA Auditorium. Each celebration will include a musical performance from our students and speeches given in honor of the occasion. We will have capacity for visitors during the grades 4-5 ceremony (8:15-8:40 a.m.) if you would like to attend. Please check in at the main office beginning at 8:00 a.m. Please see the complete assembly schedule below:
- Grades 4-5: 8:15-8:40 a.m.
- Grades 2-3: 8:50-9:15 a.m.
- Grades 6-8: 9:25-9:50 a.m.
- Grades 9-12: 10:00-10:25 a.m.
If you or a family member has served and you would like to include a photo in our Veterans Day slideshow, please email a photo of the veteran to fcastro@eagleridgeacademy.org and include their name and the branch of the military they served in by Thursday, November 7. If you have already submitted a photo in year’s past, you do not need to resend. It will already be included in the slideshow.
