Drew Central High School
September 11 Remembrances

Drew Central High School, like many schools across the nation, paused to reflect on the tragic events of September 11, 2001. Our remembrance included a moment of silent reflection followed by a stunning performance of the National Anthem by our High School Madrigals and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Students wore red, white and blue as a show of our patriotism. Six of our students were selected as winners in our Creative Writing Contest. Their work can be found here. The photographs below highlight our day.
