Public school shows support for veterans
On Veterans Day, the Ho-Ho-Kus Public School held a ceremony to honor all military veterans. The local Washington Elm VFW Post 192 members attending the ceremony were Post Commander Stanley A. Kober; Senior Vice Commander James Noone; Ho-Ho-Kus Police Chief Gregory Kallenberg, member Post 192; Don Alverson, trustee; and Peter M. Lanza, past post commander. Front row: Allan Parker, member Post 192; and three of the four students who read their VFW Patriot’s Pen Essay Contest submissions, Margaret Joel, Jack Carnivale, and Gabriel Bierwas Not pictured: Carolyn Pontoriero. Ho-Ho-Kus Public School Principal Alexis Eckert (far right) surprised the veterans by presenting a $500 check to the post on behalf of the Student Council and all the young people who assisted and organized numerous events in the school year to help support the troops and veterans. Another $500 was donated to the Homes for Troops organization that builds ADA-compliant homes for Global War on Terrorism handicapped veterans. The ceremony included musical compositions and medleys played by the seventh and eighth grade concert band conducted by Iain Ellis and sung by the fourth to sixth grade choral group directed by Joan Holsten.
