What would happen if we saw school related distress as feedback on the system? As a psychologist, I meet many children who are distressed by school. Usually I’m being asked to change that. Can I make them less anxious? Can I make them attend without protest? 1/

An arts education is essential to the whole of education. Art heals. Art inspires. Art engages. It shapes our thinking, and it moves us to action.

Raising the bar in education must include the arts.

@MsMathLab Mostly representations of community members. Given that the project happened during the first year of the pandemic we had to scale back our design/process to get the mural painted.
