Northwest, Iowa — Veteran’s day is quickly upon us. November 11th is a national holiday for the honor of our Nation’s veterans.
We heard that area schools were doing various assemblies, so we reached out to the local schools to find out details on what they are doing. Every school that we could get in contact with did have something planned for Veteran’s day.
