Students from Desoto Trail Elementary School made safety a priority by painting crosswalks between the school and nearby neighborhoods to ensure the safety of children on the way to and from school.
A Knight Creative Communities Institute (KCCI) project to make school crosswalks brighter and safer moved to North Tallahassee's DeSoto Trail Elementary School on Saturday. The eye-catching colors and patterns are meant to grab motorists' attention.
Students from DeSoto Trail Elementary school joined community members, professional artists Cosby Hayes and Sarah Painter, Knight Creative Communities Institute volunteers, and community partners to bring Crosswalks to Classrooms to two crosswalks.
Thursday, the Knight Creative Communities class and Friends of the Leon County Leroy Collins Library unveiled a Wander and Wonder story trail at the Fort Braden Community Center.
