On the mirrors in some bathrooms, written on a piece of paper appeared one day—simple, handwritten messages of encouragement.

“You are kind, you are smart, you are loved, and you are cared for,” freshman Cheyanne Baker said. “Don’t believe what your haters tell you cause we’re all gorgeous in our own way.”

These anonymous notes have become more than just words on paper— they’ve provided a much needed comfort to students such as, senior Mia Johnson.
“I thought the note on the mirror was so sweet! So many girls struggle to even go to school and I thought it was a sweet reminder for them.”

What began as a small act of kindness has become a source of support to those who need it most. Baker, the writer behind the notes, knows firsthand what it feels like to struggle with self-image.

“The reason why I started doing all that is because I used to get bullied so much for my looks and weight,” Baker said. “But as I’ve grown up, I’ve learned to appreciate myself and love myself for who I am, and I want to help other girls do the same. I want them to love themselves for who they are.”

Baker hopes that the notes boost people’s confidence and help them feel better about themselves.

Though she hasn’t thought about other ways to spread positivity, Baker says she’s open to expanding the idea in the future.

For now, her simple, heartfelt messages continue to quietly uplift students, offering a small but meaningful reminder that they are not alone.
