CODEPINK goes to school @ Lowell Elementary



Arizona CODEPINK peace group graciously accepted an invite to be part of the annual peace competition that judges the results of creative geniuses at Lowell elementary school in south Phoenix.We were very excited to learn about what the children envisioned peace to look like in their lives?We judged K-3 for one catergory and 4-8 grades.I arrived early enough to see Sparky the ASU mascot perform and interact with the smiling kids.Sparky goes around on tour to encourage children to prioritize school, homework learning, setting goals, and be prepared for lifes challenges.It gave me some pointers on how to improve my school appearances for more effectively.We spent a few hours had a blast with the kids and set the stage for a return next year to promote tolerance through arts!!!
