9-11 8th Grade Video & Discussion
Last Friday, SFX 8th graders viewed a video about a young man who gave others hope and became a hero on September 11, 2001. Welles Crowther, who is known as "the man in the red bandana," was a 24-year-old Boston College graduate who selflessly put his faith into action and saved others while sacrificing his own life on that infamous day. Ms. Tegtmeyer led a discussion on heroic qualities and ways that we can serve God and others as we remember the victims of September 11, 2001. Ms. Tegtmeyer says "This story ties in so well to our Virtue of the Month: Faith. Throughout the years, I have exchanged emails with his parents ( his father, Jeff, passed away last year) and sister who are so grateful that today’s children are learning about Welles and all those who became heroes on a day that I am certain you and I will never forget".
