Each conference school selected only 10 student artists to participate in a full day of workshops, where students explored a variety of creative techniques including batik, embroidery, cyanotype, shrink-a-dinks, spray-paint hydro dipping, needle-felting, and Sharpie tie-dye.
The day wrapped up with a collaborative group challenge where students designed and created wearable art pieces for a fashion show!

There is some “ribbit-ing” research happening in Mr. Elbert’s English class at Pacific Intermediate as students explore the life cycle of a frog while developing their informative writing skills. 🐸
Writing a strong essay is a process, and students are building the foundation step by step:
✅ Jotting down key facts from their research
✅ Transforming notes into organized outlines that help structure their ideas
✅ Practicing handwriting and letter sounds to make sure their message is clear
It is great to see our students strengthening their writing skills while learning about the natural world!
