Stones and Bones: Where History is Buried - - the organization's educational offering to local elementary age students, was developed by The Friends of Fairmount in 2011. The goal is to introduce SAISD 5th grade students to the wealth of history, culture, and memory captured within the boundaries of Fairmount Cemetery. They explore local, state, regional, and national history using a historic community resource and artistic responses. At Fairmount Cemetery, history "comes alive" as students study famous men and women who once lived or are buried in San Angelo, Texas. Stones and Bones is a two-day program with a 5th grade TEKS-friendly curriculum that can be integrated into the days preceding the presentation and field trip. Day one is held at the school. FOF volunteers introduce 5th grade students to Fairmount Cemetery in an hour-long presentation. Listening activities and a slide show presentation of the history of memorialization, famous and infamous citizens of San Angelo, types of grave markers, the meaning of symbolism or words found on markers, and cemetery etiquette.
