Morgan's Memorial

Today, our students participated in activities to memorialize Morgan.  Morgan Maynard Cook, sister of one of our classmates, was a student in Ms. Ever’s Kindergarten class.  Last year she was hit by a car and died.   We have a place in our garden to honor and remember Morgan.  Some of the activities included: 

  • Planting heirloom sweet peas (in the ground, to grow up the bamboo trellises, and/or in small containers to take home).
  •  Weathergrams: writing messages/pictures on paper to tie in the tree and let be changed by the weather.
  • Stone markers: once cleaned, stones hold crayon marks for a very long time; you can draw or write onto the stones surrounding.
  • Morgan's Garden to add a personal and decorative feature, helping to distinguish it from the rest of the garden.
A special thanks to Mara and Connie for putting this on. I am SO impressed by how supportive the classmates have been to our friend.  Our thoughts go out to Connie and Jaylynn's family during this sad and difficult time.
