PATRIOT DAY 2026 | WE REMEMBER. WE HONOR. WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
Today, Buckingham County High School students, staff, and members of our community came together for a special Patriot Day Celebration to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, honor those who answered the call to serve, and recognize the men and women who continue to serve and protect our communities each day.
🎶 Mrs. Patricia Ayers beautifully performed our National Anthem, helping us begin the ceremony in a truly fitting way.
We were honored to hear meaningful remarks from Joseph Marsh, Nicci Edmondston, Sergeant Jonathan Glascock, and Matthew Hall, as well as our Superintendent, Dr. Cynthia Reasoner, and BCHS Principal, Mr. Damon Talley.
A particularly special moment came when Matthew Hall presented BCHS with an American flag that was flown at the Capitol this year. We are incredibly grateful for this meaningful gift and will proudly cherish it as a reminder of the values of service, sacrifice, unity, and patriotism.
We were also honored to be joined by members of our Buckingham County School Board, Buckingham County Board of Supervisors, our local volunteer fire departments, local veterans, Buckingham County Sheriff's Department, and Buckingham County Emergency Services. Thank you for taking the time to stand alongside our students and staff—and, more importantly, for all you do for Buckingham County throughout the year. ❤️🤍💙
Days like today remind us that September 11 is not only a day to look back, but also a day to teach future generations about courage, sacrifice, service, unity, and the importance of remembering.
To everyone who helped make today's ceremony so meaningful, thank you.
We remember those we lost.
We honor those who served.
We thank those who continue to serve.
We will never forget.
