Dear Parents and Students,
Thank-you for your support and congratulations on a successful 2011-12
school year. I am so proud of the 6th Grade Talented Art group and hope you
were able to see their work along with 5th, and 4th grade in the final
exhibit in the front of the school which included our 3-D Relief Masks,
Printmaking, and Flag designs. Good luck 6th grade! All of the student's art
work and supplies were returned the week of May 7th. We did an end of the
year portfolio review and took digital photos of the student's art.
I enjoyed meeting many of our new students and families at the Passage
Days events and meetings. Welcome new 4th graders and I look forward to
seeing as many families as possible at our annual Open House. We will be
setting our sails for success in Art for 2012-13.
We had a wonderful 2012 Youth Art Month Flag design exhibit/events at
Artists in the Capitol Monday, May 7th, 2012. Thank-you to families who
were able to participate and I enjoyed very much being there with you.
Ethan, 4th grade, received an Honorable Mention at the state level. 6th
graders, Lauren, Grace, Ryan, Erik, and Sydney; and 4th graders, Caroline,
Carissa, Drew, Ethan, and Jewel, had their flag designs on exhibit. Visit
