In the 9th Grade Humanities integration class with teaching artist Caits Meissner and classroom teacher Paul Zuppello, students have been exploring the concepts of We and They through societal differences theyve identified as relevant to their own lives. Working in the collage/cut paper medium, here are a few standouts!

Teens and Parents:
A call for parents to let their teens express themselves creatively through clothing.

Women and Men:
A statement that women have value beyond traditional domestic roles. Women are doctors, lawyers and CEOs too!

Homeless and Non Homeless:
A call to see all as equal members of society, whether they dwell on streets, in shelters, apartments or homes. They earth is our true home!

Unemployed vs Employed:
Help the unemployed! Jobs, what happened to them Obama?
