Feehan Students Honor 9/11 Victims

For the tenth anniversary of the attacks.

This morning, Bishop Feehan High School honored the memory of the victims of 9/11 with prayer, reflection and a moment of silence.  All students stood for a special morning prayer dedicated to those who suffered, and still do, from the tragic event. 

Students remained standing while the National Anthem and God Bless America were sung over the p.a. system by Sarah Fischbach (Rehoboth) and Meghan Murray (Mansfield).  They were then asked to sit in silence and reflect upon the freedom that God has given them.

This was followed by a 10-bell salute for the 10th anniversary and a silent procession to class.

“What a powerful experience!” said Principal Bill Runey, “Given how vibrant and full of life our halls are each day, the tribute expressed by our students sacrificing some social time was moving.”
