With the help of muralist Alison McNair, 12 Elmira High School studetns produced a mural to express their school's support of tolerance and diversity within their community. Design of the mural began in Februrary 2003 and the project lasted through May 2003.
SOAR (Self-control, Open-mindedness, Acceptance, and Respect), part of the tolerance and diversity curriculum taught by teens at the school, were integrated into the mural.
