Mrs. Markwardt’s 3rd grade class has been learning about White Cane Day, which is coming up on October 15th!

Today, students welcomed Mrs. Holtz, a teacher in our school district who works with students who are blind or visually impaired. She gave a wonderful presentation about how white canes help people stay safe, navigate their surroundings, and be independent in their communities.

Students also created posters to help spread awareness about White Cane Day. During Innovation Class, Mr. Hartmann taught students how to use Canva to design and create their posters. Some students chose to create their posters digitally using Canva, while others chose to create their posters by hand on paper. Students proudly turned in their finished posters to Mrs. Holtz, and they will soon be displayed at businesses throughout West Allis!
