Veterans Day

Veterans Day Signup

We are honored to invite you to speak at our Veterans Day event on Monday, November 10, 2025, at Keene Mill Elementary School. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to hear firsthand about your experiences and learn more about the significance of Veterans Day, and the sacrifice of our military families. Speakers will go to one or two classrooms to share their stories with students.

Keene Mill ES needs 31 speakers-veterans and active duty-to have a speaker for each class.    If you have family member (grandparent, aunt/uncle) or community member who is a veteran/active duty and would like to speak, please invite them and fill out the form below.

The event will commence at 9:30 am and conclude at 11:00 am, with a veteran and student parade through the halls.

Please complete this form to let us know if you are available to speak.
