My Project

The items in this project will allow students to inspire themselves and each other! My goal for this project to allow students to create growth mindset projects for other students and staff at our school. Students can use technology and art to model how to stay positive despite hard challenges.

My students are hard working and fun!

They love to create art projects and share their work with others. This will create a motivational atmosphere at our school.

Maui students deserve to have joy after the wildfires devastated our island community.
