One of Jennifer鈥檚 favorite instances of helping a client realize their vision was for the special education program at Edgerton Elementary School.
鈥淎t their former building, the teachers had made their own sensory hallway with masking tape on the floor,鈥 she recalls. 鈥淔or the new building, we collaborated with the staff to make sensory boards and permanent floor decals. It鈥檚 been awesome to see them using and enjoying the new space.鈥
