On Thursday, February 1, students and teachers at Birdwell Dual Language Immersion school, represented their solidarity across the world for peace. Students wore white and created a giant peace symbol outside the school so large that it could only be captured by a drone. Students were also encouraged to make paper airplanes and put messages of peace and love on them and throw them in the air.
