April is Month of the Military Child. The life of a military kid is a blend of unique adventures and challenges. It’s important to keep in mind that they serve our country too, as part of a military family… not just in April, but all year long. This month we celebrate the challenges and triumphs of our military-connected children. These amazing kids selflessly sacrifice for our country and are brave, proud, and strong.

This is the reason we wear purple to celebrate military kids! Purple references the joint environment of the military, encompassing all service branches, Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard, and Veterans. Purple combines each branch’s colors into one: the Air Force, Navy, and Coast Guard all use shades of blue, the Army uses green, and the Marines use red. Every student and staff will be receiving Purple Up wrist bands to recognize and show support for our military students.

Good Morning, Ankeney Chargers! It’s Wednesday, March 6 and these are your morning announcements.

If you have Mrs. North for class, you will report to the IMC TODAY.

Today is Character Education Day throughout the district.  In 2005, our district implemented a character education program to lay the groundwork for good citizenship and to help students understand what is expected of them in terms of conduct.  The core of the program are the “pillars of character” that include the golden rule, caring, citizenship, fairness, respect, responsibility, and trustworthiness. The first Wednesday of each month has traditionally been character education day where one pillar is the focus.  On this day, we are encouraged to wear a character education shirt or the color of the month.  In a district as large as ours, it is one outward way to show unity and focus on a common goal.  

This month’s character pillar is Fairness.  Fairness means to be fair and just in dealing with everyone; treat everyone equally. Make decisions without playing favorites and don't take advantage of others. Don't blame others carelessly or unjustly. Take only your fair share, take turns, and share with others.

Congratulations to Mr. Tate’s Flex for bringing in the most food items in the Feed the Creek Food Drive sponsored by Beavercreek High School Student Council. We hope you enjoy your cookie party next week!

Good Morning, Ankeney Chargers! It’s Wednesday, February 7 and these are your morning announcements.

Students - If you have Mrs. Minnick or Mr. Montague 2nd Period or Flex, you will report to the Cafeteria.

Today is Character Education Day throughout the district.  In 2005, our district implemented a character education program to lay the groundwork for good citizenship and to help students understand what is expected of them in terms of conduct.  The core of the program are the “pillars of character” that include the golden rule, caring, citizenship, fairness, respect, responsibility, and trustworthiness. The first Wednesday of each month has traditionally been character education day where one pillar is the focus.  On this day, we are encouraged to wear a character education shirt or the color of the month.  In a district as large as ours, it is one outward way to show unity and focus on a common goal.  

This month’s character pillar is Trustworthiness.  Trustworthiness is the ability to keep promises, to be honest, reliable and principled while never inappropriately betraying a confidence. Trustworthiness relies on the integrity and character of the person.

Tomorrow is Veterans Day.

Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day on November 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War 1. To commemorate the ending of the war, an "unknown soldier" was buried in the highest place of honor in both England and France. These ceremonies took place on November 11th, celebrating the ending of World War I hostilities which occurred at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. This day became known internationally as "Armistice Day".

In 1926, Congress passed a resolution for an annual observance, and November 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938.

In 1954, President Eisenhower officially changed the name of the holiday from Armistice Day to Veterans Day.

Veterans Day is not to be confused with Memorial Day–a common misunderstanding. Memorial Day (the fourth Monday in May) honors American service members who died in service to their country or as a result of injuries incurred during battle.

Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans–living or dead–but especially gives thanks to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime.
