Hello, McMillan Community!

On Wednesday, November 11, McMillan Elementary will come together to celebrate Veterans Day and honor the brave men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces!

Our annual Veterans Day Assembly is a meaningful McMillan tradition that gives our students an opportunity to express gratitude for the sacrifices made by those who have served our country.

Assembly Details

Date: Wednesday, November 11, 2026

Time: 9:30 AM

Location: McMillan Elementary Multi-Purpose Room (Gym/Cafeteria/Auditorium)

All McMillan students will attend and participate in this special program. The assembly typically lasts approximately one hour and features:

  • Patriotic essays written and presented by McMillan students
  • Musical performances from each grade level
  • A special slideshow presentation honoring our veterans

❤️ 🤍 💙 Let's Show Our Patriotic Spirit!

ALL students are encouraged to wear RED, WHITE, and/or BLUE on November 11!

We hope to fill our school with patriotic colors as we celebrate the courage, service, and sacrifice of our nation's veterans.

Veterans and Family Attendance

We warmly welcome veterans from our McMillan families and community to join us for this special celebration! Family members accompanying a veteran are also invited to attend.

Due to limited seating, attendance is otherwise reserved for parents of students who have been selected to present their Veterans Day essays.

We appreciate everyone's understanding as we ensure that our students and honored veterans have room to enjoy this meaningful program.

Thank You, Veterans!

To the veterans in our McMillan community and beyond, we offer our heartfelt gratitude. We truly appreciate, respect, and honor the brave men and women who have served to preserve the freedoms we enjoy as Americans.

Thank you for your service!

Happy Veterans Day!

With gratitude,
McMillan Elementary PTA
