For #VeteransDay2024, local veterans, including a World War II veteran, spent the day with MCHS students at both campuses to share their stories and answer questions.
Coordinated by social science teachers, the annual event brings history to life while honoring veterans. 🇺🇸

We are looking forward to recognizing #VeteransDay2024 by hearing the stories of many local veterans who will be speaking to our students today.
On this day and throughout the year, we are grateful for the service of all veterans.
