Upcoming FLIGHT Events

Jun11
Celebrating Flag Day
Come join us to celebrate the nationally recognized holiday of Flag Day on June 14. During the event, students will learn how to correctly fold the United States flag. When military family members receive a folded American flag it is usually after tragedy. We want to express the seriousness and respect required during ceremonies where flags are presented. Students can reflect on the symbolism and honor of presenting folded U.S. flag and create their own flag through arts & crafts. This event will be in partnership with Military & Veteran Services.
