Mount Vernon Intermediate art club to unveil student‑designed mural after PTO grant
Summary
An intermediate‑school art teacher told the board a PTO donation funded paints for a student‑designed mural; the fifth‑ and sixth‑grade clubs completed the painting with an unveiling planned after spring break.
The board heard from Ashley Zors, the new intermediate‑school art teacher, about an art‑club mural funded by a Mount Vernon Intermediate School PTO grant.
Zors said the club — split into fifth‑ and sixth‑grade sections — originally had 55 students sign up and designed a sketchbook‑style mural to mark the year. The mural is student‑directed and crafted to allow future students to add to the piece annually. A PTO member who is the parent of an art‑club student coordinated the donation that covered paint and supplies.
The teacher said the fifth‑grade group will finish the mural this Thursday, followed by touch‑ups and an unveiling after spring break; the PTO and interested community members will be invited to attend.
The PTO donation was included on the consent agenda approved without objection earlier in the meeting.
