This is Commander Dave Louk USN (RET) and he was at Shaw on Thursday to talk with 5th graders about our flag. 5th Graders learned proper etiquette for the Arkansas and American Flags as a part of their Social Studies Standards. 5th grader, Emma, didn't know that anyone can give a flag to the Boy or Girl Scouts and they will dispose of the flag properly. "You never just throw away a flag." Judd, from Mrs. Wiggins' class, learned that servicemen and women are honored with a flag on their casket. Mae's favorite part was the video because it reminded her of why we respect the flag. Thank you Commander Dave Louk for helping our Stars learn about the Stars and Stripes.
