Attention Deer Park Families:

On Friday, November 9th at 9:15 a.m., our second graders will continue their beloved tradition of a Veterans Day performance for our very special heroes. We need your help.

Please send in the names of family or community members you know who have served or are currently serving in our armed forces.
