On Friday, May 13th, Merchantville School celebrated the life of Alijah Floyd-Brown by dedicating a playground in his memory. Alijah, was a third grader at Merchantville School diagnosed with diffused midline glioma – a malignant inoperable brain tumor. Alijah underwent three brain surgeries, completed his radiation and started chemotherapy before losing his battle with cancer. This playground will bring joy to many students just as Alijah brought joy to everyone he met.
