Our 7th grade art students have some masterpieces on display in the rotunda! They interviewed a staff member then created name art signs based on the staff member's responses. So personalized and thoughtful. They also included a note of how they chose each component. Art to treasure forever! 💙💚
At East, we have the best. 💙💚
