We are having a slow ramp up to a full art schedule, but I am happy to reconnect with the students and they appear happy to be back at school. How nice all around.
2 Things:
1. I wanted to share this link about the real value and practical training of visual art education. I had heard about this a few years ago, but the concept has been brought back into focus (no pun intended).

2. Check out the International Rose Garden Art Show, that is now on display at the BESC - PPS Headquarters. We decided the show should be seen and appreciated by more people, so we hung it last week. I think it looks great and have already heard some positive comments.
Several of our CH 3rd grade students sent their "Abstracted Bridges" drawings, fullfilling the theme of all about Portland.
