MEDIA RELEASE__The Ada Exempted Village School District is putting a new spin on its traditional Veterans Day observance this year. Because students will be in school on Veterans Day, Ada Schools will welcome area veterans to join students for breakfast, fellowship and a student-led Veterans Day Honor Ceremony.

As in years past, Ada Schools invites all area veterans to attend the Veterans Day Breakfast on Wednesday, November 11, beginning at 8:15 a.m. In addition to the open invitation, students in grades K–12 will receive invitations to take home and are encouraged to invite a veteran—whether a family member, friend or community member—to attend the breakfast and Honor Ceremony. Veterans who register with a student will get to sit together at the breakfast.
