Happy Veteran’s Day!!! We are honored to celebrate you today. Today is a special day for Keenan Elementary.
"On this Veterans Day, let us remember the service of our veterans, and let us renew our national promise to fulfill our sacred obligations to our veterans and their families who have sacrificed so much so that we can live free."
- Dan Lipinski
Today, that is what we are here to do. We want to make this all about YOU and for us to show our true appreciation for your unwavering service to America.
We honor all of the men and women who have worn our nation's uniform. Our veterans are living examples of what it means to be good citizens. They have given us a lifetime of service, and the country has been enriched by their contributions, both in and out of uniform.
More importantly, we want to thank you for your service and devotion to duty. More than 48 million Americans have served our country since 1776. Some served in time of war or peace, America's veterans all share a common bond - their unwavering belief in freedom, a belief so strong they were willing to give their lives, if need be, in its defense.
Our 4th graders have worked very hard to put on a program just for you.
You can now sit back and enjoy a special performance by our 4th graders titled “We Honor You.”

A special thanks to Joni Stephenson who worked countless hours to make this happen. We are blessed with the best music teacher around.
Thank you to all who came out for the parade. What a special time it was honoring you. We hope you felt honored and enjoyed this special day.
Veterans remember you are this nation's unsung heroes.
