Tallassee Elementary Freedom Walk
CHILDREN AT TALLASSEE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ALSO SHOWED THEIR LOVE FOR THEIR COUNTRY DURING THE SCHOOL’S ANNUAL FREEDOM WALK. ABOUT 800 KIDS AND EVEN SOME PARENTS WALKED AROUND THE TRACK DURING THEIR P-E CLASSES TO HONOR THOSE LOST IN THE ATTACKS. THE PRINCIPAL SAYS THIS IS A WAY TO TEACH THOSE WHO WEREN’T ALIVE AT THE TIME TO SEE THE TRAGEDY.

“IT GIVES US AN OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS WITH THEM THE FACTS AND EVENTS THAT HAPPENED. AND WE JUST WANT TO KEEP THAT ALIVE AND HELP THEM REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED ON THAT DAY.” SAYS JOSE REYES JR. PRINCIPAL AT TALLASSEE ELEMENTARY
