We had a lot of folks in a lot of schools during the weeks before and after November 11th. I think the unanimous consensus is the we got more out of it than the kids did. Anyone who says patriotism is dead in the public schools hasn’t visited a school in the Edmonds or Mukilteo school districts. Anyone who visited schools in those districts can confirm it is alive and well from the administration, the staff, to the students. Each year I walk away with the feeling that our country will be left in good hands when the next generation comes of age.
