My Project

Students are creating their second full wall, in school mural. This new mural will reserve a dedicated space for all eighth grade students to sign their names to the piece along a painted banner. This recognition of completion will serve as an example for the k-7th grade students.

Students in the past have been on the news and now see their own faces on the walls.

All graduating students will be commemorated for their efforts and accomplishments. These paints will be all that's needed to create our "Graduates Grow" Mural.
