9/11

 Today, I spent a lot of time reflecting on the tragic event that happened on September 11, 2001. It started with a moment of silence at work and continued throughout the day in conversations with students that were not fully clear on the significance of the terrorist attack and the importance of our resolve, turning tragedy into triumph. We don't remember this day because of buildings falling. We remember this day because of people rising. May we always remember the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attack and honor the memory of the heroes that emerged on that day. Welles Crowther was one of those heroes, and this is his story. I will never look at a red bandana the same way again. Now, it is a symbol of something much greater. If ever called upon to be the hero and save the day, may we all aspire to wear a red bandana. Thank you, Welles! #19 http://ow.ly/oNlqj
