Paws Applause:

Kudos to Mrs. Virginia Lopez, Social Studies teacher at SAHS for coordinating the 11th Annual Veterans Day Program at Shippensburg Area High School earlier today!

Nearly 300 Veterans or active duty military personnel were in attendance!

The purpose is twofold:

1.  To honor our Veterans and Active Duty Military Personnel; and

2.  To educate our students at SAHS about the importance of Veterans Day!

Kudos to everyone who was involved in making this another successful event . . .students, the music department, keynote speaker, Colonel Richard Rabe, Shippensburg Legion Post #223, St. Paul's Brass, Chartwells Dining, and the many district employees who coached students and assisted behind the scenes!!

A special thanks to the sponsors which made the program possible!
