At the April 4 All Boards Dinner program, the top three Vantage students in each area (Trade, Business, and Service) spoke about the teacher who had influenced them the most in the past two years. Tressa Ringwald, a Lincolnview student and a member of the Interactive Media program at Vantage, honored her lab teacher, Jill DeWert, by saying she was the most influential teacher. Tressa shared all the things that DeWert taught her, which went beyond just Interactive Media material. Tressa was awarded the Vantage 2013 Outstanding Student Award.<\/p>\n

The Lincolnview High School art department, under the supervision of Kay Wilusz, recently completed and submitted their shoes in Vans high school art competition.\u00a0 The lead designers were Alexandra Kleman and Shae Friemoth. In its fourth year, the Vans Custom Culture art competition inspires high school students across the United States to embrace their creativity and draw attention to the importance of art as an integral part of our schools\u2019 focus in the face of shrinking budgets.<\/p>\n

The first 1,500 U.S.-based public or private high schools that registered for Vans Custom Culture received four pairs of Vans shoes (styles: 106, Sk8-Hi, Slip On and Authentic) to make their own creations. Each pair must represent one of four themes: Action Sports, defined as boards and bikes, not stick and ball, Music, Art, and Local Flavor, a theme inspired by your surrounding community or state.<\/p>\n

Alexandra worked on the art shoes and the local themed shoes. She decorated the art shoes with actual pieces of colored pencils the she sawed, sanded and glued to the shoes. Her locally inspired shoes focused on Neil Armstrong\u2019s landing on the moon and featured a rocket leaving Earth and the craters of the moon with an American flag mounted in the shoe. Shae\u2019s music themed shoes concentrated on Bob Marley featuring a silhouette, his Jamaican heritage and philosophy and words. Her sports based hi-tops depicted skateboarding. It contained many small plastic wheels and profiles of skateboarders inside the leather segment along the ankle within a nonfigurative multicolored design.<\/p>\n

Many other students, including Ally Evans, Ethan Kleman and Ali Gorman, helped with the painting and ideas.\u00a0 Top Five finalists will be flown to New York City for an exclusive final event where the winner will be selected. The grand prize winning school will receive a $50,000 prize for their art program and the chance for their shoes to be produced and sold in Vans’ retail stores. The four runners up schools will also receive money for their art programs
\nBoth students plan to major in art next year in college. Alexandra Kleman is headed to Columbus College of Art and Design and plans to major in advertising and graphic design while Shae is going to Owens State Community College to major in interior design.<\/p>\n

Recently, Patti Cox\u2019s and Kristina Tow's students at Lincolnview elementary studied the sea and its characteristics. To culminate the theme, the students wrote stories about the sea. Their stories were then published into a hardback book for the students to enjoy. Shown above with the books are: (from the left) Lydia Fry, Lance Stuckey, Taylor Post, Katelyn Beair, Jenna Corzine, and Carter Hohman.
