We’ve got some major talent coming from the art room! Sophomore, Alexis Thiese has been working hard on her massive sculpture piece in 3D art class. Inspired by the anime character pictured below, it is in the middle stages of creation and will next get a layer of paper mache, followed with paint, to really bring it to life. Coming soon to a homecoming parade near you! 😉

Tomorrow is the third Friday of March, which marks National Preschool Teachers Appreciation Day. This is a great opportunity to recognize all the amazing educators that work daily helping to mold the young minds of our future generations. Preschool teachers are typically the first contact for our kids as they enter the education system. They generally have students between the ages of three and five, a time when children are going through a very formative and critical learning phase. The best preschool teachers can set the bar for the rest of one’s learning adventures! Thank you, Mrs. Baumler, Mrs. Carlson and Mrs. Erickson, for all you do!
