One dry erase marker brand is doing its part to modernize and optimize classrooms nationwide. Expo is teaming up with Genevieve Gorder, designer for TLC's "Trading Spaces," to help brighten and enlighten America's classrooms for learning.
"Expo is creating an opportunity for me to design a classroom that can help inspire and enhance the learning experience to its highest levels," said Gorder. "Through Expo's innovative classroom makeover program, teachers and students are experiencing the power of color to enhance learning--one classroom makeover at a time. Design is a very powerful thing; this is going to be amazing!"
Students in grades three through 12 can enter Expo's classroom makeover contest for a chance to win a $25,000 makeover. To enter, students submit an essay at expomarkers.com and in 100 words or less describe why their teacher deserves a new classroom. The contest runs through December 2006.
The grand prize will include dry erase markers, new white boards and accessories, and an overall new design that incorporates bright splashes and bold strokes of color to enhance students' learning environment.
