My Project

My goal is to provide students with a dynamic environment where they can engage in design challenges while learning about design and color theory. With your generous assistance, we aim to acquire essential tools like the Cricut Joy Xtra and Epson Printer. These tools will empower our students to unleash their creativity, enhance their critical thinking skills, and collaborate effectively while gaining a deeper understanding of branding principles.

Through hands-on activities and collaborative projects, students will develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed in the fields of design and marketing.

Your contribution will enable us to create an environment where students can explore design challenges while immersing themselves in the world of branding and color theory.

Thank you for considering our project. Your support will make a significant difference in the lives of our students and help us build a brighter future together.

Ms. Wacht
Grades 6-8
