Congratulations to Kate Dotson for receiving start-up funding for her project she submitted as part of the "Time for Change" challenge. Kate's project is focused on spreading positive messages through inspirational artwork. With her funding she was able to purchase canvases, paint, brushes, stencils, and mounting tape. Her team has been hard at work painting canvases that feature uplifting messages. The next step is to hang them up around the school to be a positive reminder for the students, staff, and visitors. Kate is in the running to get additional funding for her project, which is pretty awesome, but we think the work she has already done is truly something to be proud of.
