Dear Parents,

We hope your child(ren) enjoyed the contemporary art by Paul Klee in lesson 2. We have enjoyed seeing all the students with their art on the GRE PTA FB page. Our Eagles Are Really Talented!! The art continues to amaze us and it is exciting to be able to see more students artwork than just the class we volunteer in. Welcome to Lesson 3: Henri Matisse!! Students will be learning about this famous French artist. February 5, 2021 is the deadline to complete this project. Yes, that is a quick turn around so please do not delay because PAINT is involved 😬 and we do not want your paint to dry up. There will be another 💯 percent student participation competition for each class for lesson 3!

Thank you,

Stefanie Ellis and Brittni Hadley, Eagles ART Chairs
