outdoors! In today’s climate of division, it is refreshing to find common ground even if it is something as arbitrary as the weather. Let March be the month we start connect-ing with one another. Recently, I had the plea-sure of connecting members of American Legion Post 62 to many students across the district. Our Veterans were delighted to have conver-sations with our students. The students were engaged while veterans expressed

their passion for the Amer-ican Flag and its history. Stories of service to our country, camaraderie and skill development appeared to resonate with the stu-dents. Students were able to respectfully ask thoughtful questions. The answers giv-en were thoughtful, respect-ful and well received by the students. Connections were made. It is important to look at this example of connections

in unlikely places. How of-ten are youth and seniors having conversations? How many opportunities are missed due to assumptions that we have nothing in common with this group or that group or this person or that person? Let’s look for opportunities where we may not suspect common ground. We are people, after all. We are all looking for a little relief from the daily stress of being human.

Veterans of the American Legion Post 62 explain the history of the American flag to students at Peoria Traditional School.
