The drawings of Finn Henwood (Grade 12) and Malcolm Chapel (Grade 10) were recently honored at the ESD 112 Superintendent's Art Show. Henwood's "Grasp" was one of fifteen pieces that received the highest average scores from judges and will represent southwest Washington at the 2023 State Superintendent of Public Instruction Art Show in Olympia.
Chapel's drawing "Good News!" was also highly rated by judges and was awarded Honorable Mention status.
