Morgan Park History Program
School has always been an important part of life in Loon Lake and Emma Morgan was a favorite teacher for many students. Former student Jerry Waseca had Mrs. Morgan in the upper grades. There were between 40 and 50 students in the school at that time. Miss Mary Klobucher, Emma's sister, taught the lower grades. Jerry has fond memories of Mrs. Morgan reading to the class every day after lunch. She would read books by Jack London and others and it turned this particular student into an avid reader. He would dream of someday doing the things that he heard about from his teacher.
Emma is on the far right.
