Peak to Peak Dedicates Respect Wall
(Lafayette, Colorado) Character Development has always been a
part of the educational experience of students at Peak to Peak Charter
School! However, the school’s latest project has turned more than a few
heads! Each one of Peak to Peak ‘s 1,233 students from kindergarten
through 12th grade has created a
beautiful tile to be installed on two 35 foot
concrete walls, centrally located in front of
the school. The students were asked to first
draw their design and then paint their tiles, all centering on the importance
of respect, tolerance and diversity.
Dedication of this wall will take place on November 1, 2005 at 8:00 a.m.
This project was made possible in part due to generous grants from the Southern
Poverty Law Center and The Colorado Trust and from many generous donations of
goods and labor from areas businesses and Peak to Peak families.
The tiles will be displayed in a way that celebrates the beauty, color and
strength of diversity in our world.
