'People should know what a wonderful person she was,' says Ferndale Woods teacher following death of Maiya Doherty, 10, earlier this week
The first day of school for staff and students at Ferndale Woods Elementary School in Barrie is going to be a sombre one as they grieve the tragic death of a fellow Falcon.
Jennifer Grenier’s daughter, Jordynn, had been close friends with Maiya for several years, and the pair even had plans to hang out once she returned from her trip up north. “She’d pull into the driveway on her bike with the sweetest smile on her face trying to see where Jo was. They got along so well and they just seemed to balance each other out pretty nicely," Grenier said.
Jennifer Peltoniemi, a special education teacher at Ferndale Woods where Maiya had attended since kindergarten, told BarrieToday the young girl's death is hitting the school community hard. “That was her heart, and there are only a handful of students that do that and she was one of them,” she said.“She loved going up north and we would chat about all of those things," the teacher said.
