This year Jillian Katona, Meadowbrook’s art teacher, found a wonderful opportunity for her students to participate in an online art contest through Celebratingart.com.  The website states that it is “devoted to promotion of the arts, art appreciation and teaching.” We have such an outstanding art curriculum and so many talented students, that Mrs. Katona thought, “Why not enter?” One morning she entered 18 works of art from 18 students in 1 ^st through 6^th grade. Two weeks later it was confirmed that 11 of them were selected to be published in a book. The following week, the Meadowbrook Art Department was notified that one of those students was a Top Ten Finalist, winning a copy of the art book and a savings bond. We have so many talented artists at the Meadowbrook School that next year she wants to enter one art work for every student. Move over Picasso!
