One of the best things about having a school district with the elementary and high school connected by a hallway is the collaboration that goes on among our teachers and students. Every year for the last few years, our high school advanced art students have taken the time out of a few days to go over and paint the faces of the preschoolers. It is a fun experience for both our youngest and oldest students! Mrs. Funcannon has said this is one of her favorite projects to do with her art students. Mrs. Lawson's class were the sweetest little faces to paint! Thank you to our teachers who work together to make these things happen!
