💗🤍💙We Remember 9/11 💗🤍💙
At Walnut Street School, our students came together to honor September 11th through reflection and acts of remembrance. From creative projects in the classrooms to collaborative art projects inspired by the stories of 9/11, our students celebrated the courage, unity and spirit of community brought forth by the events of this day in 2001. Red, white and blue filled our hallways as we remembered the lives lost and the heroes who stepped forward.
