SAY HI TO OUR NEW STUDENT AIDES!

Our student aides for this year are (pictured left to right) Antonela Aguinaga, Ayla Wiggins, and Sam Joy. Student aides are a vital part of our interior design program. They support faculty with a wide range of tasks, mentor prospective high school students, and help promote the program throughout the community.
