I want to help my community by starting a cleanup day at my local park. I think picking up trash and planting flowers would make it a nicer place for everyone, and I would ask my friends and neighbors to help out too.

I think it’s important for students to have a safe space to talk about how they’re feeling and to learn ways to manage stress. I’d like to organize workshops and bring in guest speakers so everyone knows they’re not alone and can get the help they need.

We spend a lot of time inside doing work and taking test. It is important for us to take brain breaks, and to get exercise, so we can be healthy.

The kids who go to sit at a table and the other kids get up and move away that can hurt a person's feelings. So that is what I want to change in my school and community.
