Description
It is our great pleasure to announce the 12 Finalists for our Inspirational Messages of Peace Contest for 2021 and our Stockton Police Department Ambassador Rose Garden! Each contestant is one of 36 semifinalists selected this year in partnership with the International World Peace Rose Gardens! The University Park World Peace Rose Garden was the only entity across the globe to participate this year, in spite of the Pandemic. As many of you know, in the coming weeks, each student’s message will be engraved on a plaque and placed in the University Park World Peace Rose Garden in Stockton, California for two years. Each of the 12 finalists will also receive a commemorative t-shirt, certificate and a medal of honor! We would like to thank our 3 Stockton Unified School District Schools who participated this year, our amazing judges for taking the time to evaluate each message, Chief Jones from the Stockton Police Department, and our partners at the University of the Pacific Beyond Our Gates Program for conducting our virtual pre-writing event. We hope to see you in our rose garden to enjoy these Inspirational Messages of Peace and our spring blooms soon!
