    Desktop publishing classes have been very busy these past few weeks, designing their own t-shirts.  Mrs. Crossett has had her classes participate in this project for the last four years.
     Mrs. Crossett got the bright idea when shopping at Wal-Mart. “I saw the t-shirt transfers and thought students would enjoy making them,” commented Mrs. Crossett.
     Students practiced their photoshop skills during this project. They used design techniques, use of color, graphic editing, and certain printing rules that go along the transfer paper.
     So what type of t-shirt can students create? “Students can design anything appropriate for school,” stated Mrs. Crossett. There have been senior shirts, state championship shirts, best friends, band groups, summer vacation, e.t.c.
    T-shirt day was April 29th.
