Quarterbacks in spotlight when No. 6 Miami visits SyracusePrincipal Acedo of the Academy Hill School and Melissa Brown, special educator pose with Flat Stanley in Wilton. Submitted photo WILTON — A collaboration between Melissa Brown’s second and third-grade special education class at Academy Hill School [AHS] and the AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary has achieved national recognition, earning the AMVETS Post 33 in Jay the prestigious Carol King Show and Tell for Child Welfare Award. The award was presented on Sept. 6, with Brown and AHS Principal Keith Acedo attending the ceremony to celebrate the achievement. This marks the eighth year of partnership between Brown’s class and the AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary. Brown credited the auxiliary, led by President Connie Cordell, for their continued support and involvement. “This collaboration initially began with a family friend, Connie Cordell,” Brown said. “At the time, she was just a member of the women’s auxiliary, but she’s now president. She asked to come into my classroom to volunteer and to do some projects with my students, and here we are eight years later doing even bigger and better projects.” The Flat Stanley project, a centerpiece of this partnership was instrumental in earning the national award. Students sent their Flat Stanley creations to various locations across the globe, and the responses they received sparked excitement and a sense of adventure. “My students had a mix of curiosity, excitement, and anticipation while waiting for their Flat Stanley responses,” Brown said. “They felt curious about where their creations would travel and who would write back and the stories he would come back with.” Flat Stanley’s travels included destinations such as Germany, where he visited a U.S. Army base and returned with German chocolates and a coffee mug for the teachers. In Florida, Stanley took photos with pilots in the cockpit and brought back pilot wings for the students. In South Carolina, he worked at a cake decorating shop, took a painting class and brought back a painting for the classroom. Other destinations included Belgium, where he visited a bakery and a doctor’s office, and Texas, where he spent time at a doggy day care, much to the delight of the animal-loving students.“They are animal lovers and loved seeing Flat Stanley taking naps and playing with the dogs,” Brown said. Closer to home, Flat Stanley visited Montreal, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Boston. Brown explained how the destinations were chosen. “We brainstormed places that we knew people and then asked permission to send him and see if they would be willing to visit places with him and take pictures and write about what he did. Everyone we asked was very willing to help us out.” Shirley Girard (right), president of the Department of Maine AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary, poses with Connie Cordell (center) and Lisa Stoddard (left), parliamentarian, and a large Flat Stanley to celebrate the Academy Hill School AMVETS Flat Stanley project in Wilton.

By connecting with individuals in diverse locations, students were introduced to new cultures, traditions and lifestyles. Brown noted that these experiences made lessons more interactive and meaningful. “Receiving letters, photos, and gifts sparked excitement and a sense of adventure. It made the project feel real and meaningful.” The project also supported students’ emotional development. “By learning about different communities and the people Flat Stanley visits, students practice understanding and appreciation for diverse perspectives, fostering empathy,” Brown said. “Writing letters and sharing stories enhanced my students’ ability to express their thoughts and feelings, which is crucial for building relationships and effective communication.” Students displayed enthusiasm for the project, with some taking a particular interest. “Two students in particular continuously looked at our bulletin board that had all the places he had traveled,” Brown said. “They would always ask if we had gotten anything back yet or they would express, ‘I wonder what he is doing today?’” The recognition from the AMVETS award highlighted the significance of the collaboration. “They picked our project as the best project of the year,” Brown said. “The members of the AMVETS were very excited and very proud of the recognition for the kids and themselves.” Attending the award ceremony with Principal Acedo was a moment of pride for Brown. “There was a sense of pride in being recognized for this achievement,” she said. “Seeing my students celebrated is inspiring, reminding me of the importance of fostering creativity, perseverance and a love of learning.” Brown expressed gratitude for the AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary and their contributions to the classroom. Beyond the Flat Stanley project, students have participated in activities such as creating birthday cards for veterans, assembling honor flight packages, and preparing care packages for soldiers during the holidays. “These activities not only taught them about empathy, gratitude, and civic responsibility but also provided them with practical opportunities to practice their reading and writing skills,” Brown wrote in an impact letter to the AMVETS honors and awards committee. “Their efforts have not only enhanced their educational experience but have also nurtured their personal development in profound ways.” The partnership continues to inspire and engage students at Academy Hill School. Reflecting on the journey so far, Brown said, “The Flat Stanley project is significant because it offers a holistic educational experience that nurtures academic skills while also fostering personal growth and social awareness.” We invite you to add your comments.
