Council Rock Students Thank Veterans

Posted Date: 11/10/26 (02:35 PM)

Council Rock Primary School hosted a Veterans Day assembly for all students on Tuesday, Nov. 10. Principal Matt Tappon taught students what a veteran is and introduced them to two veterans: former CRPS teaching assistant Gail Sacchi and his father, Jim Tappon. Mrs. Sacchi served in the Air Force during peacetime and Mr. Jim Tappon served in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam War. They talked about their experiences serving the country.

Principal Tappon read the book “Veterans: Heroes in Our Neighborhood” by Valerie Pfundstein. Students then thanked the veterans for their service. Thank you to all of the veterans in our community for your service.
