Proclamation

Hoover Board of Education

National Veterans and Military Families Appreciation Month 2021

Whereas, the United States has always stood as a beacon of opportunity, freedom, and promise; and 

Whereas, each November, the military community celebrates America's Veterans and Military families in an effort to convey respect for their service and sacrifice; and

Whereas, our nation’s communities must engage in ways to serve those who serve; and

Whereas, our school system has approximately 220 students who are a part of active-duty military families - and many more who have Veterans in their families; and

Whereas, our school system seeks ways to honor and memorialize those who have fought for our freedoms so courageously; and

Whereas, Presidents and others have called upon Americans to “...honor military families through private actions and public service for the tremendous contributions they make in [support of our] Nation.”

Now, therefore, be it proclaimed that the Hoover Board of Education joins other local, state, and national organizations in proclaiming November as National Veterans and Military Families Appreciation Month.
