At Rhame Avenue School, 6th-grade teacher Alexis Freudenberg led a touching 9/11 remembrance event that brought the entire school together to honor this important day in history.
In preparation, students read a passage about Sept. 11 to better understand the significance of the event. They then created “remembrance chains,” writing kind messages on paper links. These chains symbolized how people united in support on Sept. 11, 2001.
Gathering on the field, the students and staff joined their chains together and held hands in a large circle, observing a moment of silence to reflect on the day’s meaning and the power of community.
