NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸 The Panther community recognized the 25th Anniversary of 9/11 on Friday with a special tribute. We were fortunate to have our Grade 8 Social Studies classes participate in three interviews with 9/11 survivors, including Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Jules Naudet. Naudet and his brother are known for their 9/11 documentary that was filmed while responding to the WTC with the FDNY . Their personal stories of courage, bravery, and resilience are the reason why we teach about the tragic events of that day. https://youtu.be/CBAjNTQcOws?feature=shared Norwalk Public Schools Voices Center for Resilience

🏈 Inspiring the next generation!
Division I football players—including Norwalk’s very own Cam Edwards, West Rocks alum Sebastien Pierre, and Norwalk alum Mysonne Pollard, alongside teammate Drew Buckley—recently paid a special visit to West Rocks Middle School to speak with students! 🏫🐻
It’s always amazing to see student-athletes giving back to their local communities, sharing their journeys, and motivating young minds to tackle their goals both on and off the field. A special homecoming for these local alumni makes it even more impactful! Keep making Norwalk proud, guys! 🙌📚💪 .cam1
