Amazing Artists!

Congratulations to Lute (grade 3) and Nerah (grade 4)! Their designs were chosen as winners of the "Flights of Fancy" poster contest as part of the Flint Hills International Children's Festival, an Ordway Center event. Only one winner is chosen for each grade level from the many pieces of art that are submitted so these two are truly special artists! Their works are on display at the Ordway Center.
