The eighth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks falls on just the third day of school this year. Teachers have different plans to mark the day, and say they need to be sensitive to the age of the students.

I remember driving west on Park Avenue in Long Beach with my then 1 1/2-year-old daughter tucked in her car seat behind me. It was midday, and the sun shone so brightly. There was a break between the buildings, and through it I could peer toward the destruction.
