Grace Greenly:
Lions - On November 11 every year we celebrate Veterans Day. Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans–living or deceased. We would like to give thanks to all veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime. We have several members of the LHS community members who are veterans or active service members. We encourage you to think about the sacrifices veterans made and take a moment to thank them for their service.

Mr. Mickey Wentz, a math teacher at Littleton High School, will lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance today. Mr. Wentz served in the United States Coast Guard for eight years as a Rescue Survival Swimmer and a Maritime Law Enforcement Member. He was stationed in San Francisco and Seattle. Mr. Wentz, we thank you for your service.

Mr. Wentz leads the pledge.

Mrs. Benton:
We are grateful to have two other faculty members who are veterans.
Amber Barnello, a teacher at LHS served in the US Air Force and was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base, as well Kadena Air Force Base for 4 years working as a munitions specialist. This assignment included inspecting and transporting munitions, as well as a trainer for munition transportation drivers. She was deployed to Diego Garcia, in the Indian Ocean, during Desert Storm. Ms. Barnello was also enlisted in the US Army National Guard and stationed in North Dakota and Las Vegas working in water purification. Ms. Barnello, we thank you for your service.

Sean Sweeney, a Business Teacher at LHS, served as a Captain in the United States Marine Corps. During his 4 years of service, he was stationed at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego, California, where he and his platoon of Marines ensured more than 15,000 civilians per year were outfitted with the equipment and materials needed to get them through Marine Corps Boot Camp training - earning them the title of “the Few, the Proud, the Marines.”
