We are excited to remind you that tomorrow we will hold our Veterans Day Assembly to honor and celebrate those who have bravely served our country. It is a special time for us to express our gratitude and learn about the importance of service and sacrifice. Donations for the Honor Flight are also being accepted. We invite members of the AFC Community to join us. The assembly will begin at 1:30 at AFC Elementary School, and doors will open at 1:15. Please use Door 2.
Additionally, we are kicking off Anti-Bullying Week with a theme that brings our community together: “America is Against Bullying!” We encourage all students to wear red, white, and blue tomorrow as a symbol of support for our Veterans and as a stand against bullying.
We look forward to a meaningful day of reflection, learning, and community spirit. Thank you for your support in making these events impactful for our students.
