Janel MacLean started customizing shoes for Parkwood Elementary School students last year as a way to help them freshen up their old shoes. After seeing an Instagram Reel of a teacher in Toronto that purchased Air Force 1s for her entire class of students to customize, MacLean was inspired to do something.
"That was the spark that I needed," MacLean said. "If she could do it for 22 students, I could do it for every one of my fifth graders."
On Dec. 13, students attended an assembly where they were surprised with their very own pair of the popular Nike shoes.
