As we mark the twentieth anniversary of September 11, 2001, the Bay Shore School Íæż½ã½ã pauses to remember those lost and honor the survivors. The Íæż½ã½ã will hold a memorial ceremony that is open to the public on September 11, 2021. A video will be shared on our website.
Our Social Studies Department has created a series of lessons for our students. The lessons revolve around community service and the compelling question, How should 9/11 be remembered?
Many who were alive on September 11, 2001, have strong memories of the way everyone came together in the aftermath. We celebrated the heroes in our communities. We were all a little kinder to each other. To honor the memory of those lost on September 11th, we would like to bring that spirit back, if only for a week.
During the week of September 11-17, 2021, we are encouraging our community to participate in Bay Shore Remembers. Perform a random act of kindness, snap a photo and share the story with us. Share a photo or video with a story of someone who gifted you with a random act of kindness. Send us a video telling everyone who your everyday Bay Shore hero is, someone who deserves recognition for what they do in the community.
Photos, short videos and stories should be sent to communityservice@bayshoreschools.org. Stories will be shared on the Íæż½ã½ã’s website and social media channels using the hashtag #BayShoreRemembers.
Help us to create a tribute that will show the world Bay Shore Remembers.
