Mighty Scholars Preschool

The 2023-2024 Annual Art Exhibition was filled with wonderful artworks by each little scholar. Family and friends enjoyed strolling through and learning about each of the 10 masterpieces. Scholars were extremely excited to show their work and talk about the process. Our annual art exhibitions are always bitter-sweet, as our school year draws to a close. The cherished memories and friendships scholars have made are priceless. Each school year is a gift to be treasured ❤️

Our 2022-2023 school year art exhibition is in the books!

Nine incredible artists (from past to present) were covered this year. With the addition of a creative self portrait, ten beautiful and creative process artworks were made by each scholar. Exploring materials and art mediums results in unique and beautifully expressive masterpieces by our young scholars.

Thats a wrap for our 2021-2022 school year art exhibition!

Art history covers a two year rotation on artists and materials. The nine artists covered this year, plus a self portrait, provided inspiration for ten beautiful, creative process artworks by each scholar. The exploration of materials results in magnificent growth experiences, as well as unique and expressive masterpieces.

Our first event of the new school year was so much fun on this beautiful rainy day ❤️

Although we aren’t located in an area where there are a multitude of trees with leaves that change to beautiful Fall hues, the hint of cooler weather invokes the same feelings for the season. The Fall colors in our yarn wrapping art are a beautiful addition to our classroom. Learning spacial concepts such as around, over/under and back/front, through the physical experience of yarn wrapping, involves a plethora of developmental skills. Once the yarn wrapping was completed, we made our own Fall leaves by framing the yarn art in the shape of a leaf 🍁
