9/11 Memorial at the High School
Once again the high school had a day of remembrance and service honoring the victims of 9/11. After school students volunteered to make sandwiches for the Mary Brenan Inn and that activity was followed by a ceremony at the Survivor Tree in the Reggie Carter commons area. Emily Abrahams read a beautiful Poem and Allison Yarri told the story of the pear tree that survived the 9/11 attacks. The students at the HS planted their own survivor tree as a memorial on the 10 year anniversary two years ago. Over 200 students symbolically watered the tree in a silent processional. Special thanks to Eileen Burke and Nancy Regan for organizing the event.
