The morning began with a breakfast in the library for area veterans, followed by a recognition ceremony in the gym.
The Raider Band opened the program with theme songs for each branch of the military, and the SHS choir performed the "Star-Spangled Banner." Elementary students entertained guests with three patriotic songs. Additionally, the poem "I Am a Veteran" by Andrea C. Brett was shared.
Rows of white chairs adorned with single white roses, the Nick Sloan Memorial Row, were arranged as a solemn tribute to deceased veterans. An Honor Roll for Sunnyvale area veterans was also called.
The ceremony concluded with the choir performing a version of "Taps" and the band closing with Sousa’s spirited "Three Cheers for the Red, White, and Blue."
