May 28, 2021: The Memorial Day weekend kicked off this morning with a beautiful ceremony at The Bronxville School.
Bronxville School Superintendent, Roy Montesano, presided over the ceremony and recognized local veterans, including Bronxville School staff members. He also recognized Bronxville school graduates who are currently serving in the military and offered a moment of silence for those who "gave the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedom."
There was a placing of the school wreaths by the girl scouts and a playing of taps. Bronxville High School Class President, Liam Heraty, spoke at the event as did 8th grader Charlotte Black. Two sophomore students, Drew Doyle and Remi Mellinghoff, were honored for their service to the school. The school band provided the music.
