With the help of the Montrose Columbine Quilters, Delta Middle School students created patriotic quilts for the armed forces in Afghanistan. Art students began designing the quilt squares around Veterans Day, incorporating into their designs the lessons they’d learned about life in the military, particularly for the men and women in Afghanistan. Other DMS students wrote notes of appreciation to be sent with the quilts. Assisting with the project were Annalee Couch, art teacher; Becky Thatcher, a special education teacher; Morgan Foote, a student teacher from the University of Northern Colorado; and Carol Bowling, whose brother is on active duty in Afghanistan.
