There are reminders everywhere that the school is dedicated to peace education. My student guide was very proud to show me their peace garden where the school holds two annual traditions: Earth Day and September 11th. On Earth Day the MS students choose a poem about the earth and everyone gathers at the Peace Pole to hear them recite it together, each student having their own line. (I forget how many languages my students guide, a fifth grader, told me are represented on the pole but there are very many. She was very proud of this.)The entire school meets in the peace garden each September 11th to reflect on world peace.
Framed posters within the building are reminders to reflect on world peace.
