North Dakota Museum of Art
Summer Arts Camps are a time for imaginations to run wild. Students will have the time of their lives creating and imagining alongside professional artists. Each week brings a different artist with new themes and projects. Students learn to develop an artwork based upon everyday experiences using the basic elements of art. No art experience is needed. Days are full of fun! Check out the schedule here.

Recycling in the Schools

A few SB meetings ago, I asked about the recycling program in our public schools.  Here is the response as per my request for information:

Although I think this is awesome, I know we can do more as a district. I would love to see recycling bins in the lunch rooms, the main offices, and the teacher lounges at every school. Now that recycling is mixed (glass, plastic, paper, etc. all together) recycling is much cheaper and easier to implement.
