The Pathways Elementary Patriots honored veterans with music at its annual Veterans Day Celebration on Friday, Nov. 8.

Dressed in red, white and blue, students of all grades sang songs about America, service and patriot spirit at the event, which was held on the school's basketball court. All local U.S. military veterans, those in active duty and their families were invited to the celebration, which was led by music teacher Jessica Palmer.

"Each year, the Pathways community comes together to honor all the brave men and women who serve in the military to protect our country and make the world a safer place," Pathways Principal Kevin Berry said.

Veterans Day, which is observed on Nov. 11, is a day to remember how important it is to be brave and appreciate the freedoms Americans enjoy, Berry said.

"At Pathways, we are the Patriots. We believe in service, honor and respect. Our students are leaders, and they demonstrate that every day. This afternoon, we hope to demonstrate our admiration for the best example of patriots, our veterans."
