Together We Are Stronger 💛🎨
Creativity, teamwork, and kindness came together as Viewmont Elementary students collaborated on a colorful community art project celebrating unity and connection.

This project highlights the power of art to bring people together and remind us that we are stronger when we support one another.

Every month, the students at Viewmont get to learn about a different artist and make their own artwork inspired by that month’s artist. This month, our students are learning about Vincent Van Gogh and getting to paint to their own canvas with a palette of paints.

Big thank you to Erica Colton and Ashley Nelson for being the Art Literacy Chairs this year. And thanks to our Viewmont community for contributing to our fundraiser so we can purchase 460 art supplies each month.

Catching up on some past events this winter…

We’ve got to give a huge shoutout to our incredible kindergarten teachers. Before the holiday, winter break, they organized an epic Polar Express party for their students. They received tickets, played games, wore their pajamas, and each student was given a scarf with their name on it! What an amazing effort, especially during the busiest time of the year.

Big thanks to Ms. Williams, Felt, Sorenson, and McIntosh. We’re so glad you’re at Viewmont!

Thank you all for your generous food donations for our teachers! The PTA was able to supply them with breakfast, snacks, and dinner during their extra hours with parent teacher conference.

And thanks so much for supporting the book fair! It’s a fabulous fundraiser for our school and provides our teachers with the Scholastic magazines for their students to practice reading in class.
