Student Art Contest

Students had the opportunity to work on their art submissions during the school closure and Shelter- in-Place order and were encouraged to help us promote Mental Health Awareness illustrated through drawing, painting, collage, photography, sculpture, creative writing, or short film. 

To display the more than 270 submissions received, a virtual art exhibition has been launched!  Virtual Art Exhibition
