FALLBROOK – With another Nov. 11 passing, Bonsall Middle School teacher Rachel Janikowski said, "It is important to remind and educate our youth to take a moment to say thank you to our veterans."
The Sullivan language arts teachers gave their students a lesson on letter writing, with the challenge to write a letter of gratitude to a U.S. veteran.
Out of 160 letters, one stood out. Emilie Butterworth, age 11, wrote a letter that expressed her appreciation for the future she will have because of the sacrifices made by the brave service members.
She was awarded a Certificate of Achievement and an Amazon gift card in a small ceremony Nov. 22, including her parents, Katherine Economou and Steve Butterworth, Principal Dr. Knox and her teacher Mrs. Janikowski who said, "We are very proud of Emilie!"
