My Project

My students do not always get to see their home decorated for the various holidays or celebrations that come up during the school year, nor take those first and last day school photos. By decorating in school, students can feel that magic that people feel when they see a brightly decorated house. School will be a friendly environment that they enter on a daily basis instead of the boring place to learn.

Let students feel special.

The backdrops will be propped up with the stand so that they make take pictures on these occasions. These pictures will make great yearbook photos, as well as be hung up so that the students can see themselves celebrating.
