4 talented ninth graders recently entered the River Valley Art Competition with these amazing works of art.
Congratulations to Jillian Coats on earning The Director's Award with her original work " Happy Mask Salesman". The director was so impressed with her work that she gave her this award, and it's the first time it's ever been awarded!
