Kennedy Elementary School recently honored Private Kyle Demarest, a 2006 High Point High School graduate. Kennedy students prepared a special patriotic tribute to show their appreciation for Private Demarest.  Red, White and Blue filled the hallways and chants of American Pride greeted Private Demarest as he approached the gymnasium.  

 Private Demarest joined the Army Reserve in 2007 and is a proud member of the 812th Military Police Company.  He trained for five months in Missouri in preparation for his mission to Iraq.  He will leave for Iraq with his unit in May.  Kennedy students will continue to show their support to Private Demarest by sending him letters during his deployment. 

After his return from Iraq, Private Demarest will continue his work with the Army Reserve for seven more years.
