Patriot Day is a day of remembrance, and our Intermediate School students were invited to wear red, white and blue today to remember those who we lost and give thanks to the brave first responders who put their lives on the line on Sept. 11.
We will never forget.
“No Day Shall Erase You From the Memory of Time”
---- from "Book IX of The Aeneid" by Roman poet Virgil, which is inscribed on the wall of the 9/11 Memorial Museum in New York City.
Reminder to families: The IS PTO invites all students to wear red, white and blue tomorrow in recognition of Patriot Day.
