Be a Friend Project friend mail going out. I love that some of my students still love doing this even though it's not a class project. Every month their kindness shines. I always say, I have the best students! @bafproject

So honored to receive this certificate from Be A Friend Project! We've been participating every month since Jada. Fantastic organization doing great work. I love how we incorporate art to help bring smiles to victims of bullying. Teachers I highly recommend looking into this.

I love connecting art and my students with worthy causes they we use our art in. Art can make people so happy and this is a very worthy cause. It’s nice to be nice, as I tell my students daily. If you don’t know about this great organization yet, check them out! @bafproject

Happy birthday to the woman who is the heart and soul of @bafproject family. Your love is the light that brightens our darkest days in this world full of unkindness and hate. We wish you a day as special as you are Mom Jennifer Young.

This month I did the Be a Friend Project with my Drawing & Painting 2 classes and the Best Buddies club of MHS. They all blew me away! We hope Bryce loves all of our doodle friend mail and our mini origami blank books we made for him to create his own stories! @bafproject

We were PROUD to recognize our recent @bafproject, Be a Friend, supporters who took the time to write letters of support, hope, & encouragement to Jada from Florida who has been a victim & target of bullying. It only TAKES ONE PERSON to STAND UP for kindness. @westsideschoolpride

Well, we just received more good news. Dylan's lip is healing better than expected, and NO SURGERY is needed at this time! His upper lip will continue to be fuller but gradually decrease as he grows! This is better than we expected! Thanks for the support. Bullies still suck!
