On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress approved the design of a national flag.
Did you know: There have been a total of 27 variations in flag design over the years, as colonies grew into states making the 50 states that are represented on the flag today by the white stars.
Today our students celebrated Flag Day! Thank you to our staff for organizing this event and thank you to members and leaders of Pack 554 for attending and folding the flag.
