Finished School Beautifcation at the High School

The students painted the wooden poles in a gradient with a focus on black and white balance in patterns. They used matte exterior latex I bought from SnB on a RCEF grant. They also use spray chalkboard paint to finish the back of the door so it can be used to leave reminders and messages for students. They worked hard and collaborated on these projects and our school is just that bit more beautiful now.

School Beautification

As part of the RCEF grant, high school students sought to beautify our school with some public artworks. They painted the poles outside of the school and spray painted the door with chalkboard paint so it can be used for messages. They sanded the surfaces to prep them for paint. S. taped the handle and other mechanisms with blue painter's tape to preserve them. We used exterior latex paint in matte finish. The poles were painted black and white to create a value scale that starts at the parking lot with dark value and leads to light value (based on the balance of black and white).
