Memorial for Aaron Baten at San Rafael High


Memorial for Aaron Baten at San Rafael High
The Issue
Aaron Baten was a rising senior at San Rafael High School whose life was tragically cut short this past summer. He was not only a promising student but also a beloved member of the San Rafael High community and an outstanding player on the school's football team. Aaron's passion for the sport and his dedication to his teammates and friends left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.
In recognition of Aaron's contributions to the school and in honor of his memory, we are proposing the installation of a plaque on the bleachers of the school stadium. The plaque would serve as a permanent reminder of Aaron’s positive influence and his exceptional spirit both on and off the field. It's a gesture that would reflect the immense impact he had on our community and provide a place for friends, family, and future students to remember and honor him.
This memorial will ensure that Aaron’s legacy continues to inspire students and athletes for generations to come. His story is one of dedication, teamwork, and friendship, and it's essential for these values to be remembered and celebrated. By placing the plaque in the stadium, a place where he shone with his athletic prowess, we create a fitting tribute to his life.
Your support is crucial. Together, we can honor Aaron Baten in a manner that reflects the love and admiration the San Rafael High community holds for him. Please sign this petition to show your support for building a memorial that keeps Aaron's memory alive and inspires future generations.
