The Lamar R-1 School held its annual Veterans Day assembly at 10 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 8, in the high school gym. Prior to the assembly, a breakfast was provided to the veterans by the Lamar FCCLA. The assembly featured several bands and choirs as they performed a variety of patriot songs and recognized the veterans that attended. The guest speaker was SGM Gary Barnes (ret), a 1975 Lamar High School graduate who served for 41 years, retiring in 2017. The program came to an end with the playing of “Taps”.
