1. Lenapehoking Marker
George School resides on Lenapehokingland that once was and still is sacred to the Lenape People. It is here that the people called the "peacemakers" have lived their lives, spoken their language, and held their ceremonies for thousands of years. In honor of them, let us pause in the Lenape way, remembering where we are and who we are with. To be of one mind and one heart with all our relations. To remember the ancestors and to walk softly and carefully on our Mother Earth. And to give thanks to our Creator. With these thoughts, all right action follows Aho.
