This gallery is a way to highlight the remarkable products of art education in the district. It’s a digital attempt at bringing the work of our student artists at all levels into your home – because art is created for others to take in.
Reece, a student at Table Mound, was recently awarded first place in the 1st-3rd grade category of the American Printing House for the Blind’s APH Insights 2016 art exhibition. Reece created an artwork featuring trees in each season of the year. He and his family traveled to Louisville, Kentucky to receive the award which included a blue ribbon and $100.

At this kickoff, several teachers and Principal Hull volunteered to play one of the games being sold through the fundraiser, a jelly bean tasting game. Flavors included marshmallow, toothpaste, grass, rotten eggs, sour milk, and more. Can you tell from the expressions whether they chose a good-tasting jelly bean or one that was not as pleasant tasting?
