With the removal of a giant pine that obscured the flagpole, the colors are once again flying at Hoxsie School. And to commemorate the occasion, the entire school turned out Thursday – Flag Day – for a program that included patriotic songs, comments from the superintendent and principal and the reading of winning essays on “what the flag means to me” by their young authors. Senator Michael McCaffrey provided the school flag. (Warwick Beacon photos)
