Albert Olivas, a teacher at Tucson's C.E. Rose K-8, was getting ready for work on Sept. 11, 2001, when he turned on the TV and saw the towers burning. He gathered with colleagues to watch the first tower fall before teaching his second-grade class that day. Now an eighth-grade teacher, Olivas has noticed more students — many born after 2001 — know little about the attacks.
