Baldwin High School Fashion Class Helps Give Children in Need a ‘Happy Halloween’
This Halloween, at Baldwin High School, there are no tricks, only treats! Teacher, Ms. Analisa Giannone, engaged her "Fashion 1" class in a community service initiative. The students utilized their sewing skills and hand-stitching techniques to craft over 30 felt monster stuffed animals for the children at the Bethany House. The project is in line with the district’s focus on “students as producers” and civics.
