"If arts have a place in society, they must be a part of a community. To be an artist is not the privilege of a few, but the necessity of us all." –Robert Lawson Shaw

Veterans Day Tribute from Kindergarten, First, and Second Graders
In honor of Veterans Day our SPARK K, 1st, and 2nd graders recorded a video singing two patriotic songs--"America (My Country 'Tis of Thee)" and "America the Beautiful" to send out to Veterans groups, hospitals, and to post on social media.
America
My country 'tis of thee sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing!
Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrims' pride.
From ev'ry mountainside let freedom ring!
Our fathers' God to thee, Author of liberty, to thee we sing!
long may our land be bright with freedom's holy light!
Protect us by thy might, great God our King!
Second graders featured:
O beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife.
Who more than self their country loved, and mercy more than life!
America! America! May God thy gold refine!
Till all success be nobleness and every gain divine!
O beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties above the fruited plain!
America! America! God shed his grace on thee.
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea!
Thank you, VETERANS!
