A Peace Flag Project in California

Message: Hello Ladies/Gentlemen:

While cruising the internet, I discovered your website. I would like to share my story.

I am a teacher at a continuation high school in Napa, CA. My class is coordinating a school wide peace flag activity. The students and I have been cutting muslin, sewing top slip pockets, counting and distributing the blank clothes to each class. During their home room period, every student will design their flags. This project will culminate with all 250 flags coming together to be hung around our campus on Peace Day 2012.

This was all born out of a cloth donation from our beloved, retired school counselor who had cleaned out her closets over the summer and donated varous pieces of fabric to my arts class. To honor her and world peace, I had the idea to do this schoolwide project. When I mentioned it to my students, they unanimously agreed it had to be done!

In Peace, Michelle McMaster
Teacher, Horizons Community Day Scl.
