Terronez Middle School will formally dedicate a peace mural designed by students with local artist Will Portis. The art is a “working mural,” designated as a place where students can go to resolve conflicts using questions included in the mural. The mural project began in 2018 as part of the school’s work on restorative practices in partnership with the Civic Education Center. The unveiling has been delayed by pandemic restrictions.
Speakers will include Board of Education Trustees, Superintendent Bob Nelson, Principal Zerina Hargrove-Brown, partners from the Civic Education Center, and students.
“This peace mural has truly been a student-driven project that will benefit the entire Terronez campus for years to come. It also directly reflects two of our district values – positive behavior and accountability,” said Superintendent Bob Nelson.
