Oakwood Elementary hosted a Veteran’s Day parade today. All students were encouraged to wear red, white, and blue and were given a flag to hold. Students formed a large circle outside the school driveway and veterans were encouraged to come and drive through the parade. The parade began at 10:15 and cars  lined up beginning at 9:50. It was an exciting and successful event with many veterans being thanked and cheered on. Patriotic music was being played as the veterans drove through and cards, letters, and pictures were handed to the veterans as they entered the parade.
