Many of the 8th grade students were given a wonderful opportunity to learn about our flag and even retire flags with members of the VFW on Wednesday. Students were able to watch their classmates retire a flag and retire one themselves. Special thank you to the amazing people at the Belle Fourche VFW for allowing these students this opportunity to learn and grow!
