9/11  memorial

American History students at Portsmouth West High School created a display to commemorate the 40 heroes who lost their lives on the hijacked Flight 93 on Sept. 11, 2001.  Mrs. Callihan's classes researched the events of 9/11, focusing specifically on Flight 93.  To represent each tragic life lost on Flight 93, students placed a flag, empty shoes, and a picture with a biography of each passenger. The public is invited to drive by the high school and view this memorial, which will be up through Friday, September 15.
