Artwork Chosen for Young People's Contest

Congratulations to five talented students who recently had their
artwork judged at the Mansfield Art Center. A special round of applause for two
students, Lucas VanArsdale and Allie Atkins, who were chosen to have their art
pieces represent Ontario Middle School in the Young People's Art Show. Their
work will be on display throughout March at the State Teachers Retirement
Building in Columbus.
Mrs. Garberich had a difficult time in selecting student pieces to
be entered in this prestigious competition for grades K-8, but she ultimately
chose Raelene Harris, Allie Atkinson and Lucas VanArsdale as well as Travis Gayheart and Olivia
Shaver's work to represent our district. Each area teacher was permitted to entered
only five pieces of student work in the competition. Good job student
artists!
