Sisters first graders learned about the history and etiquette surrounding the American flag in a Lion's club presentation on Thursday, May 29.

Retired Coast Guard officer and Sisters resident Len Knott led the presentation.

"He did an outstanding job," said teacher Kirk Albertson.

"He is like a natural teacher."

The students learned the meaning of the stars and stripes, how to treat a flag and each student received a small flag of his or her own.
