📣 Today, Goochland Elementary proudly celebrates Veterans Day! 🇺🇸 We are honored to welcome local veterans into our classrooms, where they’re sharing stories of service and reading with our students.
Our fifth-grade students are learning about the powerful symbolism of the White Table—a tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice and never returned home. This meaningful display is set up in the performance area on stage for all to observe and reflect upon.
To show our gratitude, each student will also receive an American flag to take home. Thank you to our veterans for your courage, dedication, and service!
