Carrollton Exempted Village Schools

I would like everyone to recall the events that occurred 24 years ago on September 11, 2001….
Altogether, 2,977 innocent men, women, and children lost their lives in attacks meant to terrorize our nation. They had been going about their day – harming no one – when sudden evil struck. We will never undo the pain and injustice borne that terrible morning, nor will we ever forget those we lost.
On September 11, 2001, amid shattered glass, twisted steel, and clouds of dust, the spirit of America shone through. We remember the sacrifice of strangers and first responders who rushed into darkness to carry others from danger. We remember the unbreakable bonds of unity we felt in the long days that followed – how we held each other, how we came to our neighbor’s aid, how we prayed for one another. We remember how Americans of every station joined together to support the survivors in their hour of need and to heal our Nation in the years that followed.
By a joint resolution approved December 18, 2001, the Congress has designated September 11 of each year as ‘Patriot Day’ and has requested the observance of a nationwide moment of silence at 8:46am every year on September 11. We can never repay those heroes who gave of themselves in the face of such great evil – but we can – and we must – pay them forward for their sacrifices. Today, we can honor those we lost by building a Nation worthy of their memories. Hopefully we can all realize that the sacrifices we are asked to make pale in comparison to the sacrifices made by the heroes we lost on 9/11 and the sacrifices our military men and women make every day in order to keep us free.
“We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth.”
~ Abraham Lincoln
“Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and success of liberty. This much we pledge – and more.”
~ John F. Kennedy
If you are able, I would ask everyone in Warrior Nation to observe a moment of silence at 8:46AM today in remembrance of the innocent lives lost on 9/11 and in honor of the greatest nation in the history of the world – the United States of America.
May we never forget…and may God always bless America. Thank you.
