St. Mark's School in King's Cove, a tiny town of 90 people on Newfoundland's Bonivista Peninsula, has been Maggie Long's second home most of her life.It's at St. Mark's where she learned how to read, went over her multiplication tables and learned the basics of outer space and history. But more than that, it's where Maggie has felt a sense of accomplishment with each grade completed, and where she grew into a young adult.
April Churchill, who has taught at St. Mark's for 12 of the past 14 years, says it's a small school with a big impact on the lives of the students. "In the class sizes, it's much better quality instruction, and even though it's a small school, they still have lots of opportunities," Wiseman said. Debbie Long says the town of Summerville, where the Longs live, as well as many other communities in the area, have thrown their support behind Maggie and the graduation.
