We remembered those who lost their lives in the September 11th attacks by wearing red, white, and blue, as well as observing a moment of silence after we said the Pledge of Allegiance and listened to the Star-Spangled Banner. Thank you to all of the men and women who served as first responders, rescue workers, and in the armed forces as our country worked to unite and recover. We will never forget. 🇺🇸 #OnePender

Twenty-five years later, we remember.

On September 11, 2001, thousands of lives were lost, families were forever changed, and first responders answered an unimaginable call.

Today, Pender County Schools pauses to remember those who died, honor those who served and sacrificed in the years that followed, and recognize the families and communities who continue to carry the impact of that day.

For our students, September 11 is history. It is our responsibility to help them understand why we remember.

🇺🇸 We will never forget.
