Youth Art Month 2013!

January is Youth Art Month (YAM) and Art I & II students designed a YAM flag representing the state of Alabama. I chose one flag design from each class and their entries have been submitted for a chance to win an all expenses paid trip to New York City and also to have their flag turned into a real flag that would fly in Washington D.C.!
