Patriot Day

The week before September 11, we read all about Patriot Day. We learned about the losses that Americans suffered that day. This tragic event united the American people. We learned all about first responders and that they help people during an emergency.

On Patriot Day, we wanted to thank our first responders. Mrs. Grunden's friend is a New York City Firefighter. His company (Truck 20) lost many firefighters on September 11, 2001, so we mailed them letters to thank them for their bravery and strength.
