Faculty, staff and students at Ronkonkoma Middle School recently welcomed close to 50 military veterans, along with their proud families, to the school’s annual breakfast celebration in honor of their service to the country.

Students, teachers and the visiting guests gathered in the school’s cafeteria for a delicious breakfast, and engaged in conversations surrounding the pride they share with members of the community, in honoring the service and sacrifice of all veterans. Additionally, veterans from every branch of the service were called upon to stand as the RMS Jazz Band played the official themes for their particular branch of service. 

Afterward, the veterans visited classrooms throughout the school to meet with students, who respectfully asked questions about their service.
