My 9 year old niece goes to a private school here. Not a religion-based school, and not a public school. As part of their curriculum, they do lots and lots of hands-on stuff. Here is a pic of a day field trip they took right before Christmas. I am busting out with pride.

Awesome, Deb!!
That is such a wonderful thing to do for the troops and a great experience for the kids.
Would be nice if more school kids did it.....maybe help them to realize their freedoms come with a price and that it's real people over there fighting for those freedoms.

That's great. Wish more kids were taken to do this.

I really love these kinds of pics.
The kids may not have a complete awareness of what they're doing, but they'll remember the experience forever.

Are they greeting them coming home or seeing them off?
-
This one was coming home, on 12/21. This was the first time they did it, and they want to do a seeing off one too. I believe the teachers are going to try to commit to once every 6 months or so. My niece has an Uncle in the AF, my SIL's brother. I think she probably got it a little more than most, because it is discussed in our family.
Here is another. I think the kids really had a good time.

I got teared up. Way to go!!!!
