Veterans Day

I believe that staying in school to celebrate Veteran's Day is a better idea than having the day off to celebrate. This is because when we are in school, we have more activities to commemorate the event. At home, most people are likely to forget why we even get the day off, and do not give the veterans the honor that they deserve. However, by having students attend school on this day, they become more aware of the day and it's purpose, and will honor it. Talking about the day in school will also encourage students who were not previously aware of it to go home and also celebrate it with their families.
