Elmwood
School commemorated “Constitution Day” on Friday, Sept. 16th
with a school-wide program. Constitution Day celebrates the
formation of the United States Constitution and recognizes all
the citizens of the United States of America. Our students
presented a wonderful program that involved the reciting of the
Preamble to the Constitution. There were student-made signs
that illustrated the preamble and also sign language used by the
students. The entire student body then sang “This Land is Your
Land.” At the end of the program, White Doves were released to
signify peace and freedom in our country. This celebration was
coordinated by our Elmwood Arts Steering Committee and the
Elmwood Teaching Staff. >>see
