📣📣📣📣SPARTAN HIGHLIGHT !!! Ms. Olivia Cooper (Art Teacher) For the past several months, our talented 8th-grade artists have been doing much more than creating art. They have explored museum and gallery design, curation, theme development, composition, and how portfolios help artists share their stories with the world.

Each student developed a personal portfolio centered around a theme of their choice, creating a collection of artwork that reflects their interests, perspectives, and unique artistic voice.

We are proud to present the first-ever virtual 8th Grade Art Exhibition:

👁️ Through Their Eyes 👁️

Every one of our artists has worked incredibly hard and deserves to be celebrated for their creativity and growth.
