Northport’s Norwood Avenue Elementary Students
Shine Bright With Thoughtful Doodles
Categories: Inspired School Districts
Today, 500 students in Kindergarten through 4th grade created powerful
and inspiring doodles at Norwood Avenue Elementary School in Northport-East Northport School District
5 assemblies and 100’s of doodles later—we now have a crew of inspired young Northport doodlers
who feel passionate about this movement.
Check out some of the amazing work.
I was inspired, proud, honored and full of joy seeing Allan’s book be the platform for love in this world.
Even the security guard created a doodle! 
So special. Allan’s doodle “set your default to nice” is part of my presentation. Then we set new defaults. What a sweet note from Lindsay, at Norwood Elementary, who brought me in. Extra thanks to Madeleine Mart for spreading the joy and making the positive connection!
