Month of the Military Child Assemblies

Alt Text: Two parents share their military experiences with students in an assembly setting.

 

In April, we celebrated the Month of the Military Child with a series of grade-level assemblies honoring our military-connected families. Crossfield students heard firsthand from parents who shared stories, perspectives, and a glimpse into military life and culture. We extend our sincere thanks to Mr. Alexander, Mr. Best, Ms. Glubzinski, Ms. Kasper, and Ms. Martinez for your time, and thanks also to your strong and resilient “dandelion” children who bloom where they are planted.
