Today, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the heroes who showed extraordinary courage and selflessness in the face of tragedy. We also remember the way communities came together - supporting one another, standing stronger together and showing the very best of the human spirit. As we celebrate the power of education-based activities to bring people together, we are reminded that the values we teach - teamwork, respect, compassion and service - extend far beyond the field, court or stage. Today and always, we remember. #NeverForget
