Dear Parents,

This school year, your child has been a participant in Hope on the Rize, a writing and short film project.  The aim of Hope on the Rize is to leverage the humanizing power of poetry, narrative writing, and creativity to build community, empower youth visions and voices, and bridge classroom learning and real-world impact!

Student films are viewed and celebrated by the distinguished Mother Tree Council!  And for every Horizon film submitted to Pseads, we plant a tree in collaboration with reforestation initiatives to extend the ripple of student action.  Thank you!

Pseads would like to share and celebrate student films and poetry with project mentors, create highlights of student work, and share inspirations from students with educators and students across schools.

The second panel features a woman with glasses reading a handwritten note outdoors with trees and a house in the background. The third panel depicts a young man with dark hair and a hoodie sitting at a picnic table reading a notebook in a grassy park.
