As I mentioned in our last report in November 2025, we reached a milestone of serving 10,000 plus students across 20 school districts spanning nine states. Indian Hill Elementary in Cincinnati, Ohio is the school that helped reach our milestone. It is always interesting to see the results of the tree ceilings. How students and teachers react and use the ceilings. Sarah Kellett, the counselor at the school wrote about their experience with the trees. This experience began with them selecting the tree murals for their classrooms before winter break. They waited with anticipatory excitement over the break, then were greeted by the trees to start the new year. One student said, “I don’t want to leave the classroom”. You can read her full story by visiting the link below.
Your support continues to help students around the country. About 20% of kids are still struggling with anxiety left over from the pandemic. The trees provide support to students, helping them feel calmer, safer, and more connected to their classroom. We greatly appreciate your continued partnership to bring nature’s restorative power into schools
