It's not just November 11 when Canada's fallen are remembered.

Local schools throughout the local area also take time each year to honour our soldiers, past and present.

Tim Whitford with the High River Legion says it's nice to see.

"They do an excellent job in this town, the teachers and principals support Remembrance Day ceremonies to the nth degree, so it's very impressive," he says. "Every year we're just amazed at the effort that goes in to the services and the participation levels."

There are ceremonies Friday at Notre Dame Collegiate and Holy Spirit school.
