Jordan School District students are participating in field trips to the 9/11 Project hosted by the Major Brent Taylor Foundation, according to a September 10 report. The exhibit is located at the Bastian Agricultural Center in South Jordan and will remain on display until Sept. 14.
Bingham High School and Daybreak Elementary School students were among the first to tour the immersive exhibit. Bingham High madrigals performed the Star-Spangled Banner to open the event before public tours began. While Daybreak students were the first group to arrive for a field trip, more than 5,000 students from the Jordan School District are expected to tour the exhibit during its run.
In addition to the museum tour, students have the opportunity to speak with first responders from New York City who were present during the September 11, 2001, attacks. The experience also includes viewing local fire, police, and military vehicles up close.
The 9/11 Project aims to honor and educate future generations regarding the history and lessons of the September 11 attacks.
