Students at schools all across America annually gather at their schools flag poles on the third Wednesday in September to pray for their schools, friends, teachers, government and nation. 

Students from Centralia High School, W.F. West High School and Chehalis Middle School were among those to participate on Wednesday.



"See You at the Pole is a global movement of prayer which is student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led. It revolves around students praying together on the fourth Wednesday in September, usually before school and usually at the school's flag pole," according to information submitted to The Chronicle by Leah Daarud. "It involves student in elementary schools, middle/junior high schools, high schools, and colleges/universities across the globe. Adults often pray in support of the students on campus by gathering nearby, at their places of work or worship, or at city halls."

"Centralia High School Students expressed gratitude for the freedom to share with others their faith and relationship with Jesus," Leah Daarud wrote. "They ask the community for continued prayer."
