Artist Celebration

Twelve of our students participated this year in the Katy ISD Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo art contest. The pieces entered were made in art class and selected by the art teachers for their effort and craftsmanship. We are happy to share that one of our 5th graders won the “Best of Show” trophy and will represent all Katy ISD Elementary schools at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo at NRG Arena. The other pieces received high honors and beautiful ribbons. Many of the pieces were finalists or gold seal winners. We are so proud of our dragons and their artwork. If you would like to see the art, it will be displayed in the library for viewing. The Best of Show art will be displayed in the Hayloft Gallery, located on the first floor of NRG Center in the west end of the lobby (main hallway). The gallery is very popular and will be viewed by many visitors during the 2019 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo which runs February 25-March 17th.
