Mrs. Durkish & Mr. Pratt's 5th grade classes take the
responsibility for raising and lowering the flag everyday. Since
the flag flies everyday school is in session, it becomes tattered over
time. Congressman McHugh is obtaining a new American flag that has
been flown over our nations capitol, and Assemblywoman Scozafava has
given us a NYS flag. There are very few schools in NYS that fly
the state flag. Our 5th grade students are proud to take care of
our flags and we thank them for doing a fine job. |
