Mountain Laurel Montessori Farm School students and faculty honored the 25th anniversary of the Federal holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by helping in their community. They visited senior citizens in two Front Royal nursing homes. Together, the adolescents and seniors made collages, played games, and spent time telling stories about their lives. We hope to make this a regular event throughout the year."Everybody can be great... because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love".
-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
