“I think it does say a lot that we’re able to bounce right back in a positive way,” Mark Trujillo, a teacher and co-leader of the Gender and Sexualities Alliance at Lake Middle School, said.
Students filed in and out of Denver’s Lake Middle School on Friday, each taking turns with their contributions to a new mural across a wall on the campus. Buckets of paint and countless brushes were used to fill in pre-sketched sections of gray and blue.
The GSA had planned out the mural, which included supportive messages of Black, Chicano and other students, and was disappointed to see trans students targeted by the vandalism. School officials asked reporters not to interview students during Friday’s painting event to protect their privacy.
