Freeport Public Schools participated in the Shanti Fund Gandhi Jayanti Celebration in October 2009. The theme was Peace Through Media and the Peace Concert was held on Tuesday night, October 13, 7:30 PM, at the high school. This celebration, co-sponsored by the Shanti Fund and the Office of the Arts, outlines how peace begins with us; living in harmony with one another, the Earth, and all Circles of Life. This movement, Pathways to Peace was envisioned in 1945 and incorporated in 1983. Two winners from the Freeport Public Schools won the Peace Poster Competition. These were: Luis Zepeda from Nicolas Alberti’s class at Dodd Middle School and Mica Gerald from Cathy Rode-Flores’ class at Freeport High School. Every school was represented in the competition and all of the artwork was on display the night of the concert.
This will be an on-going project throughout the year.
