Throughout the district, schools observed moments of silence, planted American flags, held remembrance ceremonies featuring patriotic songs and provided students with opportunities to view artifacts and learn more about the events of that day.
Through each tribute, the Connetquot school community honored the lives lost and ensured their memory is never forgotten.
