Veterans' Day Message
Posted Date: 11/11/26 (11:49 AM)
The Cameron R-1 School District would like to recognize our Veterans for their service to our country. Today and every day, we are grateful for all those who have served and are thankful for their sacrifice. The joys we take for granted each day would not be possible if not for those who have served and fought for our freedom.
As there are many different celebrations scheduled in our community on this important day, the district has chosen to honor our local Veterans with a special event or activity on the dates noted below, specific to each building level. We sincerely hope our local Veterans are able to attend and can experience first-hand the well-deserved honor and respect exhibited by our students and staff through their conversations and performances.
Parkview Elementary (PreK-2nd Grade) - Students participate in a building-wide art project which is presented for display at Cameron Veterans' Home a few days prior to Veterans' Day to provide positive visual support and encouragement to residents at our local facility.
