MW Chalk Day Art Gallery

Thank you MW Administrator Max Smith and the School Advisory Council (SAC) for putting together a fun day for our Dragons on Friday, November 13th.  After a rain delay earlier in the month, Friday the 13th was a go.  Students signed up for time-slots in advance to create their parking spot masterpieces. 

Thank you to the GS Foundation for conducting tours of the building on this day.  For some of our newest families, it was their first-time inside MW.

And we couldn’t have done it without the help of our parking lot supervisors; Dr. Bob Lowerre, Karl Zweerink, David Bortz, Wendy DeGroat, and John Piersol.  Also, Troy Mitchell and Anthony Forrest restored the parking lot to all its glory at the conclusion of the day.

Lastly, thank you Michael White for shooting these pictures so we all could see the student’s work.

    Only at Maggie Walker could a four-day week have this much going on. Back to School Night is always one of my favorite events because it gives our teachers and families a chance to put names to faces. It was not that long ago that I was an MLWGS parent walking those same hallways, trying…
