Art and Civics at Don Bosco Technical Academy

At Don Bosco Technical Academy the "Kindness Tree" project in the new "Art Gallery" has grown.

Teachers school-wide have attached brightly colored red, yellow, and green new leaves to the Kindness Tree making the mural not only an artwork but a collaborative civics project. The leaves record good deeds done by Don Bosco students.  Acts of Kindness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, and Caring, are displayed in these leaves.  


These acts have occurred this school year.

The idea is that the Kindness Tree has become a model for school-wide citizenship.  In addition, Ms. Kaminski, Art Teacher at Don Bosco, has hung other groupings of student generated art works in the stairwell gallery making the space brighter and warmer to pass through for all.
