Art Competitions!

8th Grade Advanced Art!

The Montgomery Museum of Fine Art selected 2 entries from the 8th Grade Advanced Art class for the corridor exhibition, Art That Transforms,  in connection with the museum exhibition Accumulations: The Art of Joelle Ford and Stephen T. Johnson. 

There were nearly 170 entries from 14 different teachers & schools, so the selection process was very difficult! 

Congratulations to

Trinity 5K and Fun Run T-shirt Design Competition

The winner for the T-shirt design will be announced tomorrow during the Middle School lunch.  This is always a fun competition and the students enjoy getting to create a t-shirt design that will be worn throughout our community.  

I am always so proud of our students and their hard work and creativity in the art room!
