9/11 Tradition Continues at APS Schools

 

The tradition of honoring those who gave their lives on September 11, 2001 continues at Aurora Public Schools. Students at Century Elementary and North Middle schools will celebrate the lives of the everyday heroes who protect them and remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.

The Daughters of the American Revolution are joining the Aurora Fire Department and the Aurora Police Department to bring the special ceremony to the schools. Each ceremony will include an impressive flag presentation, the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. Every student will hold a small American flag during the ceremony, donated by Graebel Companies.

Media are welcome to attend one of the special ceremonies at either of these APS locations:

• 8:30 am – Century Elementary School, 2500 South Granby Way 80014
• 10:30 am – North Middle School, 12095 Montview Boulevard 80010
