Hispanic Heritage Exhibition

Each year the District hosts a Hispanic Heritage Month Exhibition, which is displayed in the auditorium gallery of the School Board Administration Building. The entries are judged and only about 50 artworks are selected, from the entire district. I am proud to present our school's entries for the 2013 exhibition. These beautiful Mexican Folk Suns are watercolor paintings completed by some of our fabulous fifth graders. I wish our students luck and hope that some or all of the paintings will be selected for inclusion in the exhibition.
