Today, Ms. Ferraro’s ELA students explored symbolism and other important ELA concepts through the lens of September 11, 2001. ❤️
For Ms. Ferraro, this lesson is deeply personal. She lost her father as a result of 9/11, and we are incredibly grateful that she chose to share her story and her experience with our students. Her willingness to share such a personal part of her life gave our students an opportunity to learn not only about symbolism and literature, but also about the importance of remembering.
We are thankful for Ms. Ferraro and for the courage it takes to share her story. Today, and always, we remember the lives lost and the families and communities forever changed by that terrible day.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
