Second graders drew monsters on paper then JCHS students brought them to life.
Mrs. Kolkmeyer's Adobe students created and illustrated books and sublimation keychains that featured the hand drawn monsters. Mrs. Heitzig's Intro and Advanced Design classes created handed sewn plush toys that mimicked the drawings.
This was a well received surprise by the 2nd graders and the high school design teams have full hearts. We love collaborating with each other and connecting our Jersey Panthers! 🩵 🐾
