Student Work! Logo Designs








Read Across America!

Today we made lemonade out of lemons by working on some murals and coloring pages for Read Across America day. Mrs. Bivens, the elementary school librarian, came up with the idea. The perfect opportunity to create the murals and coloring pages came about today when our sink was out of commission. Students were really into the projects and everyone did a great job! Here are a few that were completed today. I can't wait to see them after the elementary school students have fun with them!
