Mrs. Brumley has selected the GES's artists of the month for March. In second grade the artist completed a beautiful "pour painting" with warm and cool colors in acrylics. The third grade artist created a really cool piece of art using foil, water, markers and a sharpie. In 4th grade the artist finished a self portrait using pencil and a mirror. The 5th grade artist used oil pastels to do their version of Van Gogh's "Starry Night". Congratulations to all 4 artists!
Please join us for Parent Teacher Conference on March 20th from 1-4pm!
