Climax Springs Salutes our Veterans

As Veterans Day approaches, (Nov. 11th), Climax Springs salutes those who are currently serving and those who have served our country.  On Veterans Day, Climax Springs will host a lunch for any serviceperson who wishes to join us.
For the last three weeks, the elementary art students have been hard at work designing and creating art to honor our brave men and women.  Some of the students are working on paper lanterns that will be hung overhead in the lunchroom, placemats for the lunch tables, and other artwork to be displayed around the lunchroom.  We have even collaborated together with other core subjects (cross curricular) to design a large artwork to be unveiled at the Veterans lunch.
