Pine Grove Area School District | Indiantown Gap National Cemetery
On Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, some of our high school students participated in Wreaths Across America activities at Indiantown Gap National Cemetery. Our students and faculty were able to place over 200 wreaths on specific graves and photos were sent to the family members to have as a memory. A small group went on Saturday to the ceremony and the wreath laying of over 45,000 graves. It was an amazing way for our students to understand the sacrifice that veterans make for our country as well as pay tribute to each and every veteran buried there. Each veteran's name is said when placing the wreath to remember that veteran and his or her life. Our school has been participating in this mission since 2018 and with the help of our community members, businesses, faculty, and administration we plan on continuing this mission for years to come.
