Art students spent the day enjoying all the beautiful artwork in downtown Chicago. They learned about all sorts of artists and styles of monumental sculpture.
The four Spanish 5 classes had the opportunity to make a craft related to the Day of the Dead. Each student chose a different design, decorated it, and then wrote a little note for their loved one. You can see the result in the photos; this craft adorns the walls of the C pod hallway.
