Welcome to Morgan
Morgan offers a comprehensive early childhood development program. Primary students, in grades 1-3, are divided by grade levels. They are grouped and re-grouped by skills in reading and math, according to abilities and need.
Some intermediate teachers specialize in math, social studies, science and language arts. They utilize curriculum guides, with flexibility to design instruction to meet individual or group needs.
Besides classroom teachers, there are additional teachers for art, humanities, vocal music, speech/language, physical education, library/media center and gifted-talented-creative programs.
Morgan offers special-needs instruction and facilities for MMD/FMD, a deaf educator and full-time interpreters for the hearing-impaired.

“The Giving Garden” Partnership Turns One Packet of Seeds into Community Food |
|
Turner Landscapes volunteers and Morgan Elementary students constructed a vegetable garden at Morgan Elementary School as a part of the PLANET (Professional Landcare Network) Day of Service on May 6. Staff and students spent the day working together to renovate a courtyard in the center of the school with raised vegetable beds, five trellises for peas and berries, and a rain barrel for water conservation. Students plan to donate produce from the garden to community help organizations and those in need.
(You can see pictures from the project here.)
The idea for the project began with Morgan second grader Kirsten Jones and a leftover packet of seeds.

S- social skills
A- arts and culture
