National Hispanic Heritage Month
Today we pause to honor and remember.

On September 11, 2001, nearly 3,000 lives were lost in the tragic terrorist attacks on our nation. The bravery of first responders and the resilience of communities across America remain a lasting reminder of courage and unity.

By a joint resolution of Congress, September 11 is observed each year as Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance. Americans are encouraged to mark this day with acts of service, reflection, and remembrance.

In our schools, we use this day to teach the importance of compassion, unity, and service to others. Together, we remember the past and inspire the future.
