FLEMING ISLAND —Sixth grade students showed their patriotic pride and devout gratitude for those who've served during the school's Veteran's Day ceremony on Monday, Nov. 9. The annual event aimed to honor all veterans, active-duty personnel and the families who support them every day while deployed. Fleming Island High's ROTC presented the colors while the Paterson Chorus sang the National Anthem. Along with recognition of the dozens of veteran guests, members of the Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and Army were asked to stand during their service branch music. Following that, the Paterson Chorus rendered another selection, singing "On Veteran's Day." Madeline Jennings, Sophia Sullivan and Cameron Martin wrote and read this year's student essays, highlighting the true meaning of Veteran's Day and the quiet sacrifice and steadfast dedication of veterans around the country.
