Students Share Gratitude With Veterans

In recognition of Veterans Day, students from Deauville Gardens East Elementary School and Deauville Gardens West Elementary School came together on Nov. 10 to show their appreciation for those who have served in the United States military by creating heartfelt cards for patients at the Northport Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

Students wrote thoughtful messages of gratitude and support, expressing thanks to veterans for their service and sacrifice. Through the project, students reflected on the importance of honoring members of the armed forces while spreading kindness to those receiving care at the hospital.

Collectively, the two schools created more than 150 cards, which will be distributed to veterans throughout the facility. The initiative provided students with a meaningful opportunity to give back to those who have dedicated themselves to serving the nation.
