moment of silence in class, teachers sharing their personal stories of where they were doing 9/11, being shown videos and pictures from that day, etc

Grew up in Texas and it was kinda just another page out of the history book, something historic to learn abt and obviously a very sad event but most ppl didn’t have a personal connection to nyc or anyone who lived there so we didn’t talk abt it much besides the facts. Honestly, I learned more abt the Alamo in school than I did abt 9/11

As a Queens native it was disturbing to see how majority of the country fails to take pause on 9/11. I work in Nashville & my students had no idea what 9/11 was or how it impacted people. I loved how in NY we always stopped and reflected and told stories to remember those who lost their lives and those who by some stroke of faith made it out. In every job I’ve worked in the south, I have vocalized hating being anywhere but NY on 9/11 because to them it’s just another day but to us it’s a day to remember our families and friends and hero’s and a day that changed our city forever.

as a 2001 born person, it’s so crazy looking back in elementary school and realizing my teachers were talking about this with us when the event was still so fresh for them. i don’t remember that much but it was definitely a serious time. much respect for my teachers

every 9/11 we take a minute of silence in class , its always the subject of work in any history and sometimes english class and then we watch videos of 9/11 then the next day its just not talked about

In an animation class college (in Wisconsin) on 9/11 my stop motion animation professor looked up from her computer in the middle of class and was like “Oh! It’s 9/11! 😊“ with the biggest smile on her face, like huh?

My town was extremely affected as it was a NYC commuter town only 20 min from the city. We had a NYT article written specifically about us & the train station parking lot that remained full for months after as nobody was there to get the cars & the families were grieving. We spend the day learning about it & have a moment of silence. My daughter is now growing up in the same district & as a 1st grader they held an assembly & lightly & appropriately explained the day for the ages there. The classroom read a book about a French tightrope walker who walked between the towers to introduce them to the towers in a light way & to explain the significance of them before the attack. But we didn’t get in depth until high school.

You don’t really learn it. It’s feels like a talking to close friends and their memories. Teachers talk about their experiences , friends and families and the littles despite not being around or small you know someone affected by 911 and its aftermath. My grandfather was a worker around the area and developed severe lung disease in his older years because of the toxins near the area living in lower Manhattan

Moment of silence at school. Some schools have pieces of the old buildings on their campus’s bc the event affected people from all over and some that either went to the school or knew people on the planes or in the towers or were helping etc we still hold vigils and honorable ceremonies. Teachers have talked about their lives on that day and what they were doing when it happened and how time seemed to stop. People share what their parents were doing that day too. We talk about how horrific of an event it was and how much the world changed after. We treat it as a crucial part of our states history.

i’m from jersey and it was taken sooo seriously as well we would have a moment of silence every 9/11 often had speakers and first responders speak our teachers would also change the lesson plans to speak about their own experiences from 9/11 many of my teachers actually witnessed it or had students who’s parents didn’t make it home that day, its always so hard hearing the stories but i’m glad they take it so seriously and make sure we never forget.

We talked about it and took it seriously every single year. Our teachers would tell their stories of where they were that day. I remember my senior year, one of my teachers said that when he was working at our same school the day it happened they put it on the tvs and his students waited for their parents to come pick them up. We live so close to nyc and some of his students’ parents worked at the World Trade Center, he had to watch these kids wait for their parents who weren’t coming home that day

My mother was one of the first responders to ground zero. Freshly 22 and out the NYPD acedemy working in the south BX and getting the call to head downtown and all hands on deck. Grateful she is alive and well now but I wasnt born till about a year later. She would always tell me the stories of not coming home for like 2-3 weeks sleeping at the precinct, uncovering bodies for weeks straight. Those who died when the towers got struck and those who she knew died responding to the tragedy. In school teachers would give a moment of silence and tell us where they were at the time of the tragedy. As living 20 mins outside the city many people knew someone who was there at the time. We would remember those who were lost and it is to this day a day of mourning.
