Every public school in Broward County observed it Friday by doing community service projects to commemorate the three-year mark of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy, a way to remember the 17 who died.

At Peters Elementary School in Plantation, kids were making “hug mugs” for first responders. Olsen Middle School students made gift baskets for health care professionals at Joe DiMaggio Childrens Hospital.
