Today, our students will help our community remember.

Memorial Day is about honoring the soldiers who gave their lives in service to our country, and we are proud that our students are part of that tradition.

Come downtown today to honor our fallen veterans. While there, you can see and hear SEVEN outstanding MSD marching bands that have all worked incredibly hard for this day.

The parade begins at 2:00 PM on Elm Street between Bridge Street and Central Street. Please stay for the post-parade ceremony in Veterans Park, including the dedication of the new Gulf Wars and War on Terror monument, with music provided by Memorial High School.

Let’s go Boards & Brews , The Hop Knot, AND To Share Brewing Company!!!!
