First-grade students at Bonillas Basic Curriculum Magnet School, 4757 E. Winsett, will stage a flag-raising ceremony at 10 a.m. tomorrow, Oct. 31, outside on the playground.

Students in Marjorie Murrow’s class made a 57" x 228" laminated paper flag, which they will put up on the west fence of the school’s playground. Dressed in red, white and blue, they will begin with a march out to the field, and then recite the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a moment of silence. They also will sing patriotic songs.

The month-long flag-creation activity inspired classroom civic lessons focusing on effort, cooperation, respect and democracy, as well as math lessons required for achieving the proper dimensions of the flag.

Bonillas Basic Curriculum Magnet School offers a curriculum designed to help all students achieve the highest competency in basic skills. High value is placed on scholarship, citizenship, responsibility, courtesy and respect.
