Mrs. Bottesch's 6th and 7th grade students began the 23-24 school year by building friendships through innovative art. Each color strip of paper represents a specific, unique detail about a student, and when joined together creates a piece of art as unique as the student. Each artistic piece is joined together to create a visual representation of the entire new and cherished middle school.
