Promoting education in America

Cindy Narramore, Bess McCluer and Ginger De La Motte with American Legion Auxiliary Unit 26 watch as Mayor Tom Rist signs a proclamation declaring the week of Nov. 16 to 20 as American Education Week in Mountain Home. The observance recognizes the importance of schools and teachers in the Mountain Home community and their role in providing a higher level of learning for students in the local school district. America's children represent the legacy of this nation, and the Legion Auxiliary recognizes that this legacy can only be fulfilled through quality education, auxiliary representatives said.
