Recipient of the Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge’s George Washington Honor Medal for 2002

We would like to welcome you to the new San Lorenzo High School Veterans Memorial

Program’s web page. After several years of inactivity, we are back and have a number of

projects planned. Check this website often for the latest news.

The San Lorenzo High School Veterans Memorial Program is a program which honors

former San Lorenzo students who died in action in the Vietnam War. The program began

in 1998 as a project of the San Lorenzo High School/Eden Area Regional Occupational

Program (ROP) DECA class. Members of the project teams are members of the San

Lorenzo Chapter of DECA . These students are normally seniors and/or juniors who are

also members of the marketing class at San Lorenzo.

This is a student managed program. The DECA advisor and project advisor may offer

advice, but all management decisions are made by the students.

In addition to presenting school activities that honor our veterans the program team

members also take part in activities which support our school, our local community, and

our veteran communities and organizations.

In the year 2002 we were awarded the Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge's George

Washington Honor Medal for Excellence in the schools category. This is the top honor in

this category. We thank the Freedoms Foundation for this exceptional honor.

Please take some time and explore this web site. Learn about the history, the goals, and

the team members of the San Lorenzo Veterans Memorial Program.

have missed?
