Our 7th grade students had a presentation about flag etiquette from some of our high school’s NJROTC cadets. Students learned how to respectfully interact with our country’s flag, the meaning of the 13 folds, how to carry a folded flag, and some students even got to practice folding the flag. They also learned about the NJROTC program. Thank you so much to these cadets and LCDR Allen Hale, US Navy (Ret).
