Mr. Diaz gave his annual Veteran’s Day presentation to all the Kindergarten, 1st and 4th Grade students on November 9th, 2011.  He talked about some of the different veteran organizations he belongs to.  He shared stories of his time in the Navy from the time he entered the Navy and went to Boot Camp all the way to his last day in the Navy after serving onboard the U.S.S. Mississippi CGN-40, a nuclear guided missisle cruiser.  He also shared photos showing how he got interested in becoming a teacher when serving in the Navy.  In every place, Mr. Diaz was stationed, he either tutored students, read to kids at a public library or did his student teaching.

Below is a picture of Mr. Robert McCarty presenting to 5th Graders.  He shared his experiences in both the U.S. Marines and Air National Guard. Also presenting were Mr. Robert Ford (U.S. Marines) for 2nd & 6th Grades, Mr. Tom Dougherty (U.S. Coast Guard) for 3rd Grade.
