Gift Cards for Gators--December 2024

"What Have We Done?" Art Show--December 2024

"What Have We Done?" art show featuring paintings, clay sculptures, and plastic bag and bottle jellyfish expresses humanity's impact on the Earth through pollution, deforestation, and other harmful environmental practices. Students explored these harmful practices through researching and subsequently creating the artwork to express their findings. Students created paintings to show two versions of our reality. Some students painted how the Earth looks now due to negative effects: no forests, litter, and dying animal, while some students painted how the Earth COULD look if we cared more: nature flourishing, animals thriving, and the Earth being healed. Students also wrote poems from the perspective of mother nature or from the outside looking in. Overall, this show explored the consequences of humanity but also what humanity is capable of fixing. Thank you to Ms. Brannan's art students for sharing their work with us!

Talented Theatre Field Trip--December 2024

Some of our Talented Theatre Gators visited our local BR Proud/Fox44/NBC news station to wrap up their Broadcasting Unit. Our Gators got a tour of the control room, interviewed the anchors, reporters, and meteorologists, got to explore working with a green screen for the weather, and were able to sit at the anchor table and read from the teleprompter! They even got a shoutout on the morning news!

Glasgow Gators were able to supply 200 Glasgow families with holiday meal boxes! Huge shout out to our sponsors who made this possible UnitedHealthcare and Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank. THANK YOU and Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Talented Visual Art--October 2024

Glasgow's Talented Visual Art program has created posters that speak "Peace Without Limits." For peace to be anything more than a possibility, we need to make it a priority. This year our young artists have created posters that speak to our world’s infinite potential for kindness once we commit to pursuing the idea of peace without limits.

Soarin' With Sa'Myah--September 2024

A few of our Gator ladies had a goal setting session with starting forward Sa'Myah Smith from the LSU Women's Basketball team! Sa'Myah's Community Giveback Program, "Soaring with Sa'Myah," allowed our ladies to hear from an elite STUDENT athlete. Each of our ladies with guidance from Sa'Myah set a goal for themselves and listed out who can help them to achieve that goal. We look forward to hosting Sa'Myah again when she comes back to spend time with the Gators again!

Club Day--September 2023

The Gators had a BLAST at our first club day! Lots of hands on adventures and meeting new people! Every student selected a club sponsored by a faculty member or a team of faculty members. Below are pictures from our jewelry making club, our WWII club, and our "Welcome to Hogwarts!" club.

Holi--March 2023

The Gators had a blast celebrating ART! We joined a Holi celebration to welcome the coming of spring with a Glasgow community art project. Students threw balloons filled with paint at a large canvas that is mounted to D building on campus. Students were then allowed to take water blasters (also filled with paint) to add extra pizzazz! Facepainting, art inspired button making, and a student art show rounded out our FABULOUS event. Shout out to our talented art students for all of their hard work and Ms. Dave! The Glasgow Middle School PTO came through with being our extra hands throughout the day! Community partner Walgreens (Siegen and Perkins) came through with donations of water and Gatorade!

Ms. Harlan's Talented Visual Art Class--Fantastical Humans Project

Students in Mrs. Harlan's Talented Art classes are learning about proportions of the face this year and have just completed a ceramics project sculpting Fantastical Humans. These sculptures were created with earthenware clay to be fired in a kiln and then painted.

Ms. Kelly's Physical Science Class

Students in Ms. Kelly's Physical Science class recently completed a roller coaster project. In addition to making a track that could successfully get a rolling marble through a loop and up an incline, students had to calculate kinetic and potential energy along the track as well as velocity, acceleration, and momentum. They were also required to use recyclable materials. One group even 3D printed their track using a biodegradable plastic--it took 18 hours just to print the track!

Ms. Dave's Talented Visual Art Classes--Peace Posters

Ms. Geeta Dave's talented art students are getting ready for the International Peace Poster Contest (2021-2022). This year's theme for the poster is " We Are All Connected" --the things that keep us connected—to each other, to our communities, and all together around the world. By creating peace posters, it gives children everywhere the chance to express their visions of peace and inspire the world through art and creativity.
