Today is Veterans Day, a federal holiday in the United States which takes place every year on November 11th.  This date is in honor of the “eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month" of 1918 that signaled the end of World War I, known at the time as Armistice Day. In 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower officially changed the name of the holiday from Armistice Day to Veterans Day. We take this opportunity each year to thank and honor those that have served our country. Today, students will be viewing a virtual Veterans Day ceremony in all period 4 classes. Additionally, Veterans from our community, including representatives from the Patriotic Commission and American Legion, will be visiting social studies classes. To our special guests, we say thank you for your service and for visiting South Windsor High School!
