We are kicking off the "NDMS is Thankful For" Picture Recap. Today we are thankful for our Veterans. NDMS held their annual Veteran's Day Celebration. Our Veteran Speaker, Mark Parker, is very inspiring to our community. He continues to impact lives through his work as a K9 Deputy at the Dorchester Sheriff's Office. We had a lovely performance by our Band and Choir. Poms, Dance Team and Cheer also were included in the celebration. TAPS was played by Landon Lewis. Thank you to our Veterans and Veteran Families for your sacrifice for our freedom.
