As Veterans Day approaches, we are excited to announce the creating of a "Wall of Honor" at Troy. This is an opportunity for us to recognize and honor all those who have served or are currently serving in the military.

If you have a family member or loved one who has served or is currently serving, we invite your child to complete the attached form and return it to the school by November 8th. The completed forms will be displayed on our Wall of Honor as a tribute to their service and sacrifice. Students are invited to attach, import or draw a picture of their Veteran. Social Studies teachers have also passed out these forms in class as well.

We are grateful for the chance to recognize the dedication and bravery of our veterans, and we look forward to celebrating this special occasion with our students and community.

We are excited to start planning our second Career Quest this coming Spring. Please use the links below for information.

Please sign up for the Troy Blood Drive on Tuesday Nov. 5th, from 3-8.

Students, whose parents donate, will be recognized as a pint size hero on morning announcements.
