The Logan-Magnolia School District is incredibly proud to participate in a special Military Appreciation Night hosted by Missouri Valley Community Schools prior to the football game on Friday, September 4. During the pregame ceremony, we will honor local veterans, active-duty military personnel, and family members of deployed service members from the Missouri Valley, Logan-Magnolia, and West Harrison Community School Districts bringing together members of all three communities to carry a large American flag—generously donated by WoodmenLife—during the playing of the National Anthem.
We encourage all students and families of Logan-Magnolia Schools to join us in celebrating and honoring our local service members. Your presence will help make this a truly unforgettable tribute to their sacrifice and dedication.
“It is a great privilege for our communities to unite in showing our gratitude for the commitment and sacrifices of our local service members and their families,” shared Lo-Ma Superintendent Jacob Hedger.
If you are a veteran, an active-duty service member, or a family member of deployed personnel and would like to represent the Lo-Ma community in this ceremony, please reach out to our Athletic Director Levi Ettleman via email at lettelman@lomaschools.org or call 712-644-2250 by August 21, 2026.
A brief practice will be held for all participants to provide instructions for properly unfolding and folding the large flag that night starting at 5:30 PM at the Missouri Valley Community Schools football field.
