From the National Park Service: For months following September 11, 2001, people came together to grieve family, friends, and strangers. More than 20 years later, we still do. Sometimes called “Patriots Day” or “Day of Remembrance”, September 11 has become an annual day for many Americans to remember, reflect, honor, and mourn.

Attention Families: There was a social media post two days ago related to a national snap-chat trend by a middle school student. District administration has investigated the post and situation and found it to be non-threatening. All students are safe at Berryville Schools.
