My Project

The student are really excited and enjoy painting here at DME. We are just finishing our first painting project of the year and more students keep asking for more boards to paint on. Help me continue to foster this artistic intuition with the needed supplies we ran out of!

The students have been able to zone in, get focused, and relax while painting.

This donation aids not only in our classroom supplies but the students' social emotional learning. We get to discuss each other's works, grow skills in giving and accepting criticism effectively, and find our zen in the art room!
