Teacher Quotes:
“The students were excited to see the tree ceiling in their classroom. I can already tell that by having the tree ceiling it has brought a sense of calmness and peace to the students seated underneath them.”
​Karyn Smolic, Middle School Teacher.
“My students are seated on the perimeter of the classroom. I have a handful of seats in the middle of the room, directly underneath the trees. I have students asking me to sit there so they can see the trees better.” Shelley Bellew, Middle School Teacher
Student Quotes:

​Teacher Comments:
A team came to install the ceiling tiles today.  They're beautiful.  I've attached some pictures.  My kids came back from PE and started jumping up and down with joy (literally jumping up and down, yelling "yay!") I heard everything from "It's beautiful!" to " Le voy a decir a mi mamá." I wish you could have seen their little faces. It was a very special moment.
I can't wait to practice some mindfulness under our canopy! Thank you so much for your generosity! 
Clarissa Hernandez, Kindergarten Teacher
