Pastor Matt Howlett delivered the invocation and closing reflection. Charles City Mayor Dean Andrews offered remarks, and Master Sergeant Jeremy Baugh, U.S. Army Green Beret, served as the keynote speaker. Students also performed “Armed Forces on Parade,” “In Flanders Fields,” and “War Songs in American History.”
A moment of silence and the playing of “Taps” by the CCHS Band honored all veterans.
