Veterans Day

Dear Parents/Guardians:

Veterans Day is fast approaching!  This year we are continuing our Poplar Tree tradition of honoring our students’ military family members who have been or who are currently deployed overseas or serving in the military in some capacity.

We are asking parents to e-mail or send in an actual photo of their military family member to Katrina MacWhorter.  E-mailing is the best method.  Please include rank and military branch.  Please have all pictures turned into Katrina MacWhorter by Tuesday, November 6th at 8:00 a.m.  Her e-mail address is KMMacWhorter@fcps.edu

If you sent in a picture for the 2017 Veterans Day Slideshow and would like it to be included in the 2018 slideshow, please email Mrs. MacWhorter and provide the name/names of your loved ones.  There is no need to send a new photo.

Thank you!
