"...And the home of the brave!"

This week has been awfully dreary due to the rain, but patriotism is alive and well at Fairfield Middle School and High School!  Today at school, the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks was celebrated in several ways.  At the high school, students and staff observed a moment of silence in honor of the attacks.  At the middle school, students and staff participated in an assembly commemorating 9/11 with videos, readings, songs, and personal stories.  Here in the library, our showcases are demonstrating the patriotism found at the schools, and we have many books full of heartfelt stories, information, and photos relating to the attacks that so greatly affected the entire country.  To celebrate all of the wonderful places in the United States, we have a map in the library where students and staff can mark a place they've visited.  Come celebrate our great country by visiting the library and demonstrating your right and freedom to read!
