A huge thank you to author and poet Michael Beadle for an inspiring and thought-provoking residency with our 8th grade ELA students! During his visit, Michael led students in examining bias in advertising through creative writing. His engaging sessions helped students think critically about the messages we encounter every day and gave them an outlet to express their creativity.

This experience was made possible thanks to the support of our amazing PTA through the United Arts' Artists in Schools program. We're so grateful for the opportunity to bring professional artists like Michael into our classrooms to enrich student learning.
