Today, Cody Wait's East Noble High School College and Careers students continued building their Rube Goldberg machines, learning that even the smallest part of a job can play an important role in the bigger picture. As they design, collaborate, and problem-solve together, students are seeing firsthand how every function has a purpose and how success depends on each person doing their part.
Today, East Noble Middle School's P.E. classes honored the life and legacy of Welles Crowther, known as "The Man in the Red Bandana," a stock trader who worked on the 104th floor of the South Tower. On September 11th, 2001, Crowther gave his life while helping others escape the collapsing tower, becoming a powerful example of courage and selflessness.
Students wore red bandanas in his memory and completed 9 sets of stair runs for the month, 11 crunches and/or pushups for the day, and 18 jumping jacks representing the 18 people Crowther is credited with saving. More than just a physical activity, today was an opportunity to remember those who were lost, honor those who showed extraordinary courage, and help a new generation understand the significance of September 11th.
A special thank-you to the City of Kendallville Fire Department for joining our students and helping make this meaningful day of remembrance and learning possible. We are grateful for the opportunity to come together as a community to remember, honor, and never forget.

Last evening, Rome City Elementary was filled with special moments as students welcomed their grandparents and special someones to school for a night of fun. From activities throughout the school to simply spending time side by side, it was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the people who make such a meaningful difference in our students’ lives.
25 years later, we pause to remember September 11th, 2001, and the lives forever changed that day. We honor those we lost, the families who continue to carry their memory, and the countless heroes who showed courage and compassion when our country needed it most. Today, we remember, we honor, and we will never forget.
