The students at TPLC loved this so much. Only 2 kids were interested in fashion, but the others 1) wanted to participate in a vid conf, 2) talk to someone in a cool career just to see what they can learn, 3) hang out at school on their day off because they like each other and the school.

What a treat to have Eugena Washington with her! Thanks again, GNG, for yet another terrific learning opportunity!
