Showcase Our Artists

My Project

Now that Wolfpit has transitioned into an Integrated Arts Elementary School, we have a profound need to have a way to display our students work in a sleek and modern way.

By having a full-fledged color poster printer, we will be able to showcase our student work in the hallways, classrooms, and common areas of our school building.

Students will also have the opportunity to learn how to translate their digital arts designs into physical displays to share with the school community throughout our campus. This project will help our students have ownership over their work and reinforce our belief that every student is an artist.
