This time of year, students who choose to take Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams are given artistically designed buttons to motivate them to achieve the highest scores of 5 for AP exams and 7 for IB exams. The designer of this year’s buttons is Gabriel Zamora. He is very talented at graphic design and plans a career in animation design. Gabriel based the button designs on his memory of going to a candy store in Solvang and seeing the patterns of salt water taffy!
