Clifton High School's English 1 Honors students successfully held their program honoring the families of WWII MIA Veterans on Sunday, May 5. In turn, we were honored to have the MIA Veterans' families, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, U.S. Congressman John Carter, Texas Senator Brian Birdwell, VFW Post #8553, American Legion Post #322, North Texas Patriot Guard Riders, and the Daughters and Sons of the American Revolution accept our invitation to be part of the program.
Thank you to Mrs. Gaye Lynn Seawright and the English 1 Honors Classes for all the work you did to prepare for this project. Senator Birdwell expressed his appreciation to the Clifton High School staff and students for taking pride in our country and honoring the families of those who were lost in WWII.
