I would like to take this time to commemorate you all on the courteous behavior and professionalism exhibited by all staff and students today at the 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony. This was jokingly called the most filmed event in Western's history, and it is not an exaggeration. In addition to the local Western filming team, West Broward High sent some students to cover the event, as well as BeconTV, Local 10 News, and ABC news. Everyone conducted themselves with great honor and respect and you all showed what Wildcat Pride is really about.

Remember Mr. Arrojo's definitive remark on the day. Kindness, Respect, Integrity. Those virtues were paramount in the days following 9/11 but you should strive to live by those ideals every day, tragedy or not. We were to be broken, but instead we were forged stronger than ever.

With great respect,
Western High Media
