May 17, 2023: With Memorial Day coming up, in this article, MyhometownBronxville is showcasing the Bronxville School PTA Memorial Day logos from the past ten years. These logos were all designed by Bronxville Elementary School students.
According to Bronxville Elementary School Principal Rakiya Adams, all elementary school classes have conversations about the history and significance of Memorial Day leading up to the Memorial Day Ceremony.
The classes also have a long-standing tradition of making hats featuring the American flag and red, white, and blue tie-dye shirts that they wear to the Memorial Day ceremony. Students also sing patriotic songs like the "Star-Spangled Banner" and "This Land is Your Land."
Additionally, some students participate in the Memorial Day PTA Logo contest, where one logo is chosen each year as the winner.
In reflecting on the logo competition, Amy Krause, President of the Bronxville School PTA, said, "It's wonderful that the Bronxville Elementary School teachers educate students about the significance of Memorial Day and that the Bronxville PTA provides a creative way to express it in the Memorial Day Logo contest. We feature the winning logo on our Memorial Day marketing. It's a time-honored tradition that elementary school students look forward to each year."
