MAGEE FINE ARTS/VIP NIGHT!!! VIP night is a special night at Magee that allows students to invite their very important people and show them around the school to experience everything they’ve been working on. As part of this event, Ms. Hanson worked with the PTO to facilitate an all-school art show as a fun, interesting way to showcase their talents. “I came up with the concept of To Magee and Beyond, which is an outer space themed show featuring 2D, 3D, and collaborative artwork in a gallery setting throughout the building,” said Hanson. “I thought students would really get into it and that I could also connect a lot of different art mediums to our learning goals. One of the most exciting parts was seeing how engaged students were in the planning and execution of their projects.”

Gray Sikorski was motivated by the NexTrex challenge to turn unwanted plastic bags, wraps, shipping materials, and water bottles into something of value for our school! KMECO took on the goal of collecting 1,000 pounds of plastic in bins throughout the high school. Their intent was to meet this challenge by the end of this school year, but that goal has been met well ahead of schedule. NexTrex will be providing our school with a bench, made from the recycled materials, in honor of KMECO's mission to keep plastic waste out of landfills and create something functional in the process.
