Build Murals in the Classroom

Funded Jan 1, 2024

Wow! The awe in students eyes as giant boxes of materials arrived at the door is unforgettable.After explaining that they were from a person who also believes in them the smiles were abundant.

Students worked on the this portion of their project by fiercely creating murals that matter to them, for our community. The topics were wide — this year there was lots of focus on mental health, women's rights, and BLM.

Students were eager and proud of their work! Thank you for believing in them and us!

The next part of our project is to create murals for Garden Heights— the setting of The Hate U Give. They will choose characters and create murals that matter to that character. Our emphasis is understanding complex characters and furthering our study of art as a medium for learning.”
