On Friday, September 11, PS 169 and BELL Academy students and staff joined together to pay tribute to the many brave men and women who lost their lives on September 11th 2001, and to the brave men and women who serve our city, and our country, to keep us safe every day. Our own Mr. Neggie played the bagpipes, the BELL Select Chorus led by our Musical Director Mr. Baum performed, and 8th grader Samantha read a touching poem. A PS 169 staff member sang the "Star Spangled Banner," the PS 169 chorus performed, and 2 students read an original poem. Council Member Paul Vallone, Superintendent Danielle DiMango, and District 25 UFT Representative Joe Kessler gave heartwarming speeches with a theme of unity and kindness towards one another. It was a beautiful way to commemorate this historic day.
