Our Maine Street's Aroostook Issue 32 : Spring 2017 | Page 25

Prior to the show, my second grade students work hand in hand with their parents to design one-of-a- kind costumes fashioned primarily out of recycled materials such as cardboard boxes, paper, paints, and even old clothes and toys that might otherwise get thrown into the trash. During this unique, red carpet event students grace the runway showcasing their one of a kind fashion ideas while paparazzi, (local photographers, news media sources, and a videographer) capture their every move. Th eater lights pulse, illuminate, and refl ect off the night’s most jeweled and shimmering fashions as spectators are awed by their cutting- edge ensembles. Th ese inspiring young stars strut their way down the red carpet to upbeat music while our host and MC presenter Davis Cyr, describes their fashions in intricate detail. Th e night is fi lled with excitement and one of a kind high fashion. It truly is an electrifying experience for my students, and we do it all in honor of our Earth! My mission for this project is to provoke and inspire change, after all I want my students to gain the experience and knowledge needed to better understand and respect the world they live in. My hope is that my students will become more environmentally conscious and take immediate action in preserving our world’s most precious resources. I believe that with a bit of education and awareness, this change will inspire others to do the same. The Genuine. The Original.
