Schools are not required to teach students about 9/11, though the new bill encourages it.
Pa. schools will now be required to hold a moment of silence on the anniversary of 9/11 terror attacksGold Star Mother Kathy Hause Walker works with her husband, Patrick Walker and Randy Musser president of the Patriot Park foundation, to plant more than 7,000 small US flags near the Flight 93 National Memorial in Somerset County Aug. 23, 2021, as a tribute to all the military members who have died during the global War on Terror following the Sept.11, 2001 attacks.
“We’re hoping that it’s taught that each person should remember the events of that day and the ramifications ... this affected a global economy at that point, so the ramifications are far reaching” Haddock said in an interview. Education should also include the U.S. recovery and response after the attacks as well as global challenges and consequences. Almost 3,000 people were killed in the terror attacks and thousands more died as a result of the two decades ofDespite the mandated identification of this new curriculum, Pennsylvania schools — including public school districts, charter schools, cyber charter schools, or intermediate unit or tech schools — can use the materials provided on a voluntary basis.
Haddock would have personally preferred to require the education in schools, but concerns about unfunded mandates ultimately convinced him to make participation voluntary and thus, more “palatable,” he said.
