What will be done with my students

Students will be assigned to each veteran. Students will spend two days conducting meet & greet events with a World War I through Vietnam Veteran and then on the scheduled day travel to Washington D.C. and tour the military memorials.

From the moment the veterans are in our hands until we return them to their loved ones in the evening, Sudents/guardians will be asked to treat these heroes as if they are family and ensure that every veteran has a safe, memorable, and rewarding experience. Guardians are volunteers and are expected to pay for their trip. The cost for a Guardian to take the trip is approximately $500, but may vary, depending upon flight accommodations.

 

Benefits to my students

Students will be able to connect with individuals/veterans who helped shaped the world into the place it is today. The students will create a reflection log of their experience which will be showcased in our JROTC Hallway for viewing
