Students at Brock Elliott Elementary School sat almost motionless as they listened to the sister of their namesake – Charlene Elliott Carroll – tell about her brother who died in battle in Vietnam and just who he was growing up in Manteca schools. The student body filled the school quad Tuesday morning as the Sierra High School Color Guard presented The Colors and posted them in front of the outdoor stage. They also took part in the Pledge of Allegiance led by student council president Kanani Drummond.The National Anthem was sung by eighth grader Lajolie Beugre with the some 60 voices strong Brock Elliott School Choir singing “My America” followed by “A Festive Call to Freedom.”Then, a row of students gathered near the left of the stage with single strips of paper in their hands.
