Aikin Elementary Art Teacher Cheri Lewis entered fourth-grader Avery Eudy into the annual Student Art Contest award program hosted by the Texas Rural Education Association. The contest took place this spring and consisted of three different grade categories.
This year’s topic was TREA: Empowered Educators, Thriving Students: The Impact of Your Choices. They recommended that students create robust, simple, and colorful designs to deliver the most visual impact for their message. Avery entered the Grades 3 -5 category and placed 1st among other Texas art students. To win 1st place, she will receive a plaque and a $500 check. Avery’s entry will become the property of TREA and be on display at the TREA Summer Conference.
