September 11th {Never Forget}

September 11, 2014 in Uncategorized
It is the 13th anniversary of September 11th
today. On this tragic day, many lives were lost, a city’s buildings were
destroyed, and fear encompassed our country. As a nation, we came together and
supported one another to make sure that we rose above the events of this tragic
day. Our country stood tall and united, and many heroes were, and still are,
honored for their bravery and self-sacrificing actions to ensure our freedom
and safety. 
It’s strange to think that many of our students weren’t even
born when this event happened. They are so young and don’t fully understand the
events of this day. It is hard to explain to our little ones why “bad guys” do
this to other people.  As difficult as it
is to explain this tragedy to our students, it should not go unnoticed.
In my opinion, it may not be appropriate to explain the
specific details of the event. Instead, explain the importance of what we have learned as a country. For example,
explain to students how our heroes showed (and continue to show) strength and
bravery. Explain how our country is resilient and how we continue to thrive
even in the wake of tragedy. Explain how nobody can destroy our culture and
take away our freedom.

Celebrate America and honor our American heroes not just
today on Patriot Day, but everyday!
