Spring happenings with the Crew




We can't believe its spring but signs of it are popping up all over Ridgway Elementary in the form of window paint! The Art Club kids have been adorning our windows with beautiful trees and birds, flowers and bees, and even a banana tree! (very rare in the Rockies!)


The Color Crew is busy getting ready to create this year's 5th grade "legacy project" with Ms. Wilson and Mr. Hilsendager's classes. They will be re-creating the eagle picture hanging in the entry by painting their assigned portion of the painting on a 1ft sq panel . When everyone is finished we will put them all together like a puzzle to reveal a much larger image. We will be adding a wonderful poem about the eagle by Dennis Weaver which will really add to our eagle spirit.


WE can't wait to get started.
