Our John H. West 5th grade students celebrated their Spring Tea and continued a very special tradition today.
As the story has been passed down, many years ago, a local veteran from the Plainedge community began honoring graduating students in a truly unique way. From his nearby garage, he carefully crafted army-style dog tags for each member of the graduating class, year after year, a true labor of love recognizing this important milestone.
These dog tags are more than just a keepsake they represent friendships, challenges overcome, and all the memories made at John H. West.
