Today we welcomed Cleveland Willis of C. Willis Visuals (https://www.cwillisvisuals.com/about) as we work to update our school photography and videography! 📸
We're on a mission to tell the world about RA, and Cleveland is here to help us.

A huge shout out to the mural artists who created RA's interior murals over the years!! As of today, we now have photos and descriptions hanging by the murals to recognize each artist.

This trimester our 6th grade students are learning about the art and writing in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia during arts integration.

A huge thank you to the Memorial Art Gallery!!
