Three talented artists—one from elementary, middle, and high school—were recognized for their outstanding work!  Their award-winning pieces were selected by Principal Hughes, Principal Plackemeier, and Counselor Mrs. Spyhalski.

Congratulations to Kason Ball for his pastel pumpkin drawing, Lauren Shooks for her intricate paper quilling, and Makenzie Hischer for her striking charcoal beetle.
