text: Northport Art students created an American Bald Eagle to adorn the main hallway outside the media center. The eagle was created by students to promote patriotic education as the school honored 9/11. The bald eagle is the emblem created by the Founding Fathers to represent our nation. The fierce beauty and proud independence symbolize the strength of our country. Students decorated and added messages to each feather. Many thanks to Northport art teacher, Stephanie Ramirez for her leadership and instruction.
