CELEBRATIONS
All Region Band
Art On The Bricks What an amazing event. The Peace Bubble shares the insight and reflection of how we envision and celebrate aspects of peace. What a beautiful cause for reflection- a testimony to the creative genius of Ms. Wenzel and her students who thought of this collaborative project for our community | Violin Repair A violin lost it’s bridge, so students got to go to the science room to look at it’s cell structures with a microscope. They fully disassembled the violin and successfully put it back together. If anyone needs a luthier, we now have two in house. | Walton Arts Center Arts Expo Thank you @waltonartscenter.org for hosting the Art Expo. @Artsk12.org staff left with a total of $600 for arts education within our district. |
