Allatoona Ally Contest!

The deadline for the contest has been extended to November 5th... I encourage any and all 4th and 5th grade students to apply! We will not have time to work on these in class at school but it would be a wonderful project to work on at home!

Art Show at the Marietta / Cobb Museum of Art


It's tonight!!! The Ford artists are going to be showcased at the Marietta / Cobb Museum of Art tonight for the First Friday Art Walk. Thanks to some AMAZING parent volunteers the display walls have come together and all of the little glass bees are ready to go! All of the 5th grade artists have created a glass bee to be sold at the show this evening and I was very impressed with their willingness to donate an item to benefit the MCMA and the art program here at Ford. (On a side note they have created a glass bee to take home as well so that their families can enjoy one, too. :)) There is a selection of two dimensional art from each grade that will be displayed (not for sale) this evening as well. Come out and enjoy the fun!!! We'll be there from 5-9pm.
