Connors Elementary School 6th grader Riley Brousseau, foreground right, and other members of the school’s Civil Rights Team paint a crosswalk Thursday afternoon in front of their school in Lewiston. The team is comprised of 4th-6th graders, who painted the crosswalk in preparation for the upcoming “Day of Welcome” on Nov. 4 where students across Maine highlight the work they have been doing to ensure that all Maine students are included and welcomed in school. “I think everyone should be treated equally, and this will help remind them,” Brousseau said, as she pushed the red roller back and forth.
