The students in Mrs. Cain's Fashion and Interior Design class have dedicated themselves tirelessly over the past several weeks to cut and sew 80 window curtains for the classroom doors. This project is part of a broader initiative to enhance the safety of our classrooms. These students, along with others not pictured, have developed the necessary skills to complete this task with exceptional craftsmanship. We are incredibly proud of their hard work, dedication, and commitment to improving the Rivercrest community.
