The Ada Schools District has made the decision to cancel this year's Veterans' breakfast, according to Meri Skilliter, superintendent.
"Many factors have gone into this decision but we feel, in the best interest of keeping all those in our school community safe, as well as our veterans and their families, cancelling this year's breakfast is the best option for all involved," she said.
"The Ada Schools continue to support and appreciate our veterans in every way and we hope to re-institute this cherished tradition next year."
