Elementary Students Gain a Lesson About Life

The traumatic terrorist attack that will always be remembered in the hearts of American citizens had an anniversary yesterday, September 11th. This event has affected the lives of so many, and as it becomes a major mark of history it is imperative that today's generation of youth know what happened only eleven years ago. An elementary school in Thornville, Ohio made an impact in this necessity by providing students with a meaningful presentation from the local police department and EMTs who said a prayer for all who lost a loved one in the attack and shared their memories of that shocking day. The article itself was well done, especially dealing with such a sensitive topic. There are several quotes from the presentation, as well as perspectives from children who are students at the elementary school regarding what they thought about 9/ 11.
