What is Peace: A Friends School of Minnesota Documentary
Students created a video about what peace means to the people in our community. We interviewed parents, teachers, staff, students, and other community members. They edited the video and showed it at the FGRJ Celebration!

The Philando Castile Peace Garden Informational Table
The Philando Castile Peace Garden Informational Table presented information about Philando and the organizations made in his honor. We researched his life, his murder, the Peace Garden, and Central Honors Philando by reading a variety of sources, interviewing a member of the Garden’s board and a friend of Philando’s, and finally visiting the garden itself. We compiled this information into two posters to present to our community during the Friends Gathering.
