All of Dufur School participated in our assembly honoring our veterans today. The ASB and NHS hosted the assembly. Many people contributed to make it a great event. The FCS class helped with refreshments, students and community members performed patriotic songs, and elementary students presented hand-made cards to the veterans. Mr. Mobley and Mr. Slusher were our guest speakers. Mrs. Kortge and the Ranger Pride Education Foundation coordinated decorations and banners, and Mrs. Anderson took great photographs! We would like to say to our veterans "Thank you for your service."
