My students love to express themselves through fashion, but do not always have the financial opportunity to do so.
Our school is a second home for my students, this project will allow them to beautify their school and express themselves and their love for art, fashion, and design. We plan to utilize the Cricut and vinyl to create decals that could bring life to our hallways and classroom. The students will be able to design shirts and bags that they can proudly display and motivate others in the school to join the class. We are a Title 1 school in a low income area and despite our best efforts it does not resemble the schools our students see on TV and movies. Though we try our best to make it welcoming this project will allow students to decorate the halls and classrooms to make it a place that they look forward to attending every day. We were graciously provided a Cricut earlier this school year and it has students motivated, students that traditionally had poor attendance to come to school and succeed. We would like to continue to foster this love and need for creativity by creating a fashion and design class. The materials listed will allow us to have a full class of students see their work come to life and even allow us to have a club after school for the students that don't have room in their schedule to attend the class.
