Painting Class Transforms Ordinary Chairs Into Works Of Art
Every year the painting class joins with a community wide project of transforming ordinary wooden chairs into art. Our students join students from other schools and area artists to create specialty chairs. The chamber auctions the chairs off to fund various community projects.
Here is this year's team and the chairs. Pictured below are Haile Weis, Elizebeth Venteicher, Cal Sanfelippo, Colin McCarthy, Edgar Rodriguez, and Nicholas Hoffman, not pictured is Greg Sember.

US History students recite the Gettysburg Address
"In 2014, Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns created a film chronicling the life of students at a school in Vermont as they worked to memorize the Gettysburg Address. Along with the documentary, Ken Burns challenged Americans to recite the Gettysburg Address and upload it to his website learntheaddress.org. Celebrities and everyday citizens alike have been placing their videos on the website, meeting Ken Burns' challenge, and this year's US History classes are no different. Click the links below to watch each hour's Gettysburg Address:
