Fourth graders at Syracuse Middle School host a program to honor veterans every November. Each fourth grader invites a veteran in the community to the program. They also invite members of the Legion and the Auxiliary to take part as well.

At the program students display their art, perform music, present poems and other special readings.

As part of that day, fourth graders are also asked to attend a Veteran’s Museum, which is organized by women in the local auxiliary. The display includes all the different wars that the U.S. military has participated in over the past century. It also features local military members from the area and features artifacts from their service.
