Carrie Long, head cook for Clarksburg, said the school has hosted the event for 10-15 years to honor grandparents. "They (grandparents) need to be honored, and in this world ... there is a lot of grandparents raising grandkids," she said. The school also hosts a parents' breakfast in November, for which the date has yet to be set. "A lot of grandparents are heroes," Long added. "They are their grandchildrens' heroes."
