The Mehlville High School Steering Committee would like to thank everyone for donating cans to the holiday food drive known as Turkeypalooza MLO 2011. The food collected from Turkeypalozza food drive will benefit local families within the Mehlville School District. All four grade levels had representatives work to construct the most creative and impressive canned structure during the “Can You Build It” competition to win the coveted “Can Trophy”. The sophomore class has bragging rights until next year because they won the competition by building the most creative castle. Altogether we donated over 2,400 cans to Feed My People.
How Do We Pay Tribute To A Hero?
Mehlville High School students started out their Veteran's Day with Mr. Phoenix reading the following announcement and leading the students in the Pledge of Allegiance.
“When Francis Scott Key wrote the “Star Spangled Banner” almost 200 years ago, he called America, “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” Those words are as true today as they were then. Throughout this Nation’s history, America’s soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and coast guardsmen have bravely answered the call to defend our freedom, to aid our friends and allies, and to turn back aggressors. We can never fully repay our debt of gratitude to the more than 650,000 American service members who died in battle or the 1.4 million who were wounded. We can, however, recognize and thank the 25 million veterans still living today. These words are inscribed on the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C.: “Our nation honors her sons and daughters who answered the call to defend a country they never knew and a people they never met.”
Those words apply equally to many of our World War I, World War II, Vietnam War and Gulf War veterans as well. They apply to today’s active duty service members — tomorrow’s veterans — who are helping to maintain peace throughout the world. Today, it is our privilege to say “thank you” to all of America’s veterans, to let them know that we appreciate them for their service and honor them for their sacrifices.
The price of freedom is high. We cannot afford to forget those willing to pay it.
Today, we celebrate America’s veterans for keeping this Nation “the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
MHS students and teachers chose many different ways to express their appreciation for our Veterans. Mrs. Jenkerson's Life (Learning Independence From Experiences) Skills class honored our teachers who are veterans with a thank you letter, cookies and a drink.
