Pinwheels for Peace is an art installation project started in 2005 by two Art teachers, Ann Ayers and Ellen McMillan, who teach at Monarch High School in Coconut Creek, Florida, as a way for students to express their feelings about what’s going on in the world and in their lives.  The project was quickly embraced by their students and the entire school community and by millions of art teachers, teachers, parents, children and adults who desire peace in our world.

Dundalk Elementary joined this endeavor on October 3rd outside in front of the school. Every student created a pinwheel and they were on display in front of the school. We had a school wide outside assembly in which Tierra Gainey and Courtney Prillman read a poem about peace. Ms. Willis lead the entire school singing and signing to the song “May Peace be Always With You” It was wonderful to see the entire school participate for peace.
