Dot Day Spotlight: Franklin Elementary School Students Become Their Own ‘Dots’

Franklin Elementary School in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, celebrated International Dot Day in a vibrant way. Art instructor, Kaitlyn Edington, creatively combined the themes of “I Am Human” by Susan Verde and Peter H. Reynolds with “The Dot” by encouraging her students to design their own simple self-portraits in a lively mural. Mrs. Edington said her goal has always been helping her students to “Think” and “See” like an artist. She loves to encourage trying new projects, and seeing the world in a new perspective through imagination.
