I Was Here Project

The project that we were participating in was called the "I Was Here Project" where we and our peers (7th graders) research a topic and prepare an intervention. Then, we later reflect on what we did in a movie we made in class. 

This was one of our bake sales to raise money. And yes, we spelled depression wrong in this image, but we fixed it after.

 These were treats we sold in the bake sale.

In the end, we received a 100 on this project and helped some people along the way, making our work worth it.

In short, it was an enjoyable project and more rewarding than we expected. The fact that we are also supporting ADAA's goal in promoting the search for treatments for mental disorders and educating people about these illnesses will remain in our hearts and mind. 

Sincerely, Amy Lu, Misha Kennedy, Melanie Moy, Stella Wong, Helen Chen
