If you have a veteran or active-duty service member who would like to attend, please complete and return the RSVP portion of the flyer as soon as possible so we can make the necessary arrangements.
Thank you for helping us recognize and celebrate those who have served our nation!
Sincerely,
Mamie Agnes Jones Elementary
