September 11th - Everyday Heroes

Today we discussed the difference between famous heroes and everyday heroes.  The students wrote a little note to one of their everyday heroes today.  Your child will be coming home with that note today. Please forward it off to the person they call their hero.

We took this approach, instead of discussing the tragic events of September 11th.  As the students get older and move up in OCS and into high school, the events will be discussed in their social studies classes.

That is a great approach! My mom loved what Avery wrote about her.
