We’re so excited to introduce our October Artists of the Month at PES!
🎨
Our Middle School Artist of the Month wowed us with a beautiful “All About Me” composition, using bold colors and lots of detail to make her piece stand out. The creativity and skill on display are absolutely amazing!
🎨
Our Lower School Artist of the Month created a fun and thoughtful design using words to describe her personality. The combination of words and art made this project something truly special.
🎨
Congratulations to both of our talented artists—keep creating and inspiring! Our deepest thanks to @pleasantmillsmiles for sponsoring this program! #pesartistofthemonth
Picture days are almost here,
Smiles ready, full of cheer!
October 3rd and 4th, mark the spot,
Don’t forget, it’ll mean a lot!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Uniforms crisp, hair in place,
We can’t wait to see your smiling face!
Say “cheese” and strike a pose,
It’s time to capture how each student grows.
