Lake Central News: A living monument

Don Bacso, President of the School Board, visited Lake Central on Sept. 9 to inform the students of his experience as a survivor of the 9/11 attacks. Bacso shared emotional stories of that day and the many days after to help students gain a better understanding of 9/11.
