In honor of Veterans Day, Albert G. Prodell Middle School eighth graders welcomed a group of distinguished veterans for a special assembly sponsored by the school’s National History Day Club. The event, held on Nov. 4,  was led by club advisers Ms. Corinne Fallon and Ms. Danielle Senneca.

The veterans in attendance were Buddy Gengler, Dan Guida, Ron Organ, Michael Wern, Phaedra Musselman and Philip Roberts. They shared their personal stories of military service and sacrifice, providing the students with invaluable first-hand perspectives on being in the service.

“It was an honor to host these brave men and women and to give our students the opportunity to learn directly from those who have served our country,” said Ms. Fallon. “Hearing their stories helped bring history to life in a powerful way.”

The school district extends its sincere gratitude to all those who have served in the U.S. military. The Veterans Day assembly was a meaningful experience for all in attendance, underscoring the importance of recognizing and appreciating the contributions of America's veterans.
