Today we were honored to join Benton Harbor High School students, educators, and community leaders for the annual Peace Day Walk.

As students marked their last day of school, they came together to make a commitment to peace, respect, and positive change throughout the summer. We are proud of every student who participated and grateful to be part of a tradition that encourages connection, leadership, and community pride.

Congratulations to the Benton Harbor High School Class of 2026 and all BHAS students on another successful school year. We wish you a safe, joyful, and peaceful summer ahead.

Thank you to everyone who lent a hand and helped ensure these works of art continue to be points of pride for our cities.
