Art Students Named District Champions
Allie Martin – Three Graces – First Place
For 12 out of the last 13 years, Liberty Christian art students have been named overall district champions, and they received this award again at their recent district art competition on Feb. 28.
Art department head Brandon Graham said, “I am so proud of our art students and their achievements. This win is a great validation of all of the many hours poured into each piece of artwork.
“I also want to thank fellow teachers Johanna Mann and Charlotte Roland who have prepared our art students to succeed in this competition.”
Many students individually placed, and those who scored in fifth place or higher will compete at the Texas Association and Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) State Competition on March 22 and 23 at Concordia University in Austin, Texas.
Congratulations to these students!
