BASD School Board Takes a Lesson

Information for this article from Alison Moyer, Boyertown Area School District Communications Specialist

At a Boyertown School Board Committee of the Whole Meeting, 5th grade students at Washington Elementary School (WES) provided Board Members with a drawing lesson. They were tasked to draw bears for an art show at WES.

Their drawings became part of a contest. Each drawing was randomly assigned to a grade level at WES. Students and staff voted for their favorite drawing prior to the art show with the promise of a soft pretzel party going to the grade represented by the winner. Lisa Hogan, representing 2nd grade received 57% of the votes. As the winners, the staff and students at WES were treated to a soft pretzel day.

Which would you pick?
