Valley Heights USD #498

The Valley Heights 4th graders created a coloring puzzle and learned a lot of facts today about Veteran's Day. Thank you to all veterans both in and outside of our Valley Heights communities. We appreciate everything are veterans do or have done!

We had some special visitors at Waterville Grade School today! Sam Sinclair, Officer Sinclair, and Michael Johnson spoke to first graders about Veteran's Day and their military experience. Caleb Tryon spoke to 2nd graders about his military experience. Thank you for your service!

Today we remember and honor all the men and women who have served for our country. Many have given the ultimate sacrifice and that's something we can never forget. Friday the KAY organization hosted our annual Veterans Day assembly. Jerry Zayas was our guest speaker and gave a great presentation to honor Lyle Godbout. We enjoyed music by our Valley Heights Band and Choir along with hearing poems read by some of our KAY members. It's a small gesture we try to put on to thank our local Heroes.

Practicing Gratitude daily can make you happier and eliminates stress. Write down 3 things you are thankful for, share them with family or a friend, keep a journal of the things you are grateful for. #HealthyHabits

Happy Veteran's Day to all past and present Veterans. Thank you for your service and sacrifice to our great country.

Good luck to the JH basketball teams competing at Hanover!
