Not many schools celebrate Memorial Day, because school is usually out for the summer by the last Monday in May. But Myers Elementary School in Hall County has celebrated and observed the holiday every year for the past 33 years. “Our patriotic day started a long time ago, before I got here,” said Beth Hudgins, Myers principal.
