The school's marching band played the National Anthem while the members of the JROTC participated in the American Flag raising in the school Quad.

They dedicated the tree in memory of the lives lost Sept. 11, 2001, which included Maclovio "Joe" Lopez Jr., 41, a Norwalk residence who was aboard United Airlines Flight 175 on his way home when the plane hit the south tower.
