Yesterday, students & staff across our schools honored Patriot Day by wearing red, white, & blue and joining together in a moment of silence. Throughout the day, students reflected on bravery, kindness, & resilience.

⭐ @ UMPS & UMIS, students created flags and crafts to take home. First graders discussed what it means to be brave & kind, learning that not all heroes wear capes, and colored American flag hearts. Fourth graders read ‘The Man with the Red Bandana’, the story of 9/11 hero Welles Crowther, & then wrote thank-you notes to local community heroes.

⭐ @ UMMS, students paused to remember the 2001 attacks, reflecting on the lives lost as well as the unity and courage shown in the days that followed.

⭐ @ UMHS, students watched ‘Boatlift: An Untold Tale of 9/11 Resilience’ and discussed the strength & resilience demonstrated by everyday people during that time.
