St. Damian students pay homage to U.S. veterans
Students from St. Damian School in Oak Forest observe Veterans Day with a schoolwide parade and prayer service on Nov. 11, 2021. Rain prohibited them from processing to a nearby veterans memorial for the service so they moved the program into the church. Students began the day making posters in their classrooms.
