Congrats to Liam Stephens, Fisher Reynolds, and Tucker Harris, whose creative robot artworks were selected for display. We’re proud of their imagination and craftsmanship! 🤖🎨
Congratulations to our young artists! During the last rotation, art teacher Sarah Walters helped several classes submit entries to the exhibition at The Windgate Museum of Art in Conway. Two PGMS students — 5th graders Hendrix Orona and Sullivan Hudgens — had their artwork selected to be enlarged and displayed in this juried exhibit.
