Your School Was Chosen for a Reason

We believe every child deserves the skills to solve conflict peacefully. We believe your school could be one of the first to help bring that vision to Arizona.

Why Your School?

Every day, educators step into one of the most important jobs in the world.

You

Teach | EncourageComfort | CoachProblem Solve

And somewhere in between, you manage:

  • Playground disagreements 
  • Friendship struggles 
  • Hurt feelings 
  • Misunderstandings

The conflicts that seem small, but can shape a child’s confidence, relationships and ability to learn and grow.

We know because we’ve worked alongside educators for close to 30 years.

That’s why we reached out.

Your Special Invitation

Through our partnership with the Arizona Peace Team, we identified schools that are making a meaningful impact in their communities.

Your school stood out as one we’d love to invite into this first Arizona cohort.

We’re inviting 16 schools that believe teaching children how to resolve conflict is just as important as teaching reading and math.

Imagine…

Imagine — students solving more disagreements on their own.

Imagine — fewer playground conflicts escalating.

Imagine — giving students a common language for empathy, accountability and respect.

Imagine — creating a school culture where children don’t just learn academics…

They learn how to be Peacemakers.

That’s exactly what the Peace Path was designed to do.

What’s In It for Your School?

If selected, your school will receive the opportunity to become one of Arizona’s first Peace Path Schools. This includes access to a proven conflict-resolution tool that helps students:

✔ Communicate more effectively

✔ Resolve conflict independently

✔ Build empathy

✔ Strengthen relationships

✔ Create a more peaceful school culture

Most importantly… you’ll be helping students develop skills they’ll carry long after they leave elementary school.

Why Only 16 Schools?

Because we want to do this well.

This first group will help establish the Peace Path throughout Arizona and become part of a growing community committed to creating more peaceful playgrounds and classrooms.
