Xavier Veteran’s Day Celebration

Xavier Veteran’s Day Celebration

Calling All Heroes! To celebrate Veterans Day, we are looking for veterans from our Xavier and Appleton communities to come and share their experiences with Xavier’s 7th grade class.

In Social Studies class, the 7th graders will be working in groups compiling interview questions to ask the veterans.

Then on Wednesday, November 8th, veterans can arrive at 8 am for our assembly honoring their service and stay for the student interview and a light breakfast until 9:40 am.

If you know of a veteran that would be interested in sharing their story please email social studies teacher Blake Hensley at bhensley@xaviercatholicschools.org.

Little Chute American Legion Post #258 and Blue Star Mothers, Wisconsin Chapter 1, invite you to join us on Gold Star Family Day to light luminaries at dusk in remembrance of our area’s fallen heroes.

The event will begin at 6:00 pm at the Little Chute Windmill on Sunday, September 25th as part of the National Luminary Initiative.

We will be remembering all military members who have passed while in service or from service related injuries.  

You can participate in the 2022 Gold Star Luminary Initiative even if you cannot attend the event. Here are some suggestions you can do from your home:   Light a candle or Luminary bag at the end of your driveway, light your front porch green, spend some time in silence, or place a banner/sign in a window.
