To honor those who have served our military, Lincoln Elementary students spent a day talking with local veterans about their military experiences. Students came up with questions to ask and took notes on their conversations. They will be using these interviews to complete projects in honor of the heroes they had the opportunity to meet, as well as those serving our country around the world.

Living so close to Fort Riley, it is important for our community to remember why we celebrate Veterans Day and take the time to recognize those who have served our country. Lincoln Elementary students enjoyed this opportunity and now have a better understanding of what it means to serve our country through the stories of veterans.
