Virginia School Board Artwork Winners

Spotsylvania Public Schools entered three entries into the Virginia School Board Association Student Art Contest. This contest is in conjunction with the annual VSBA Regional Spring Network Forums. This year, the contest was postponed until the summer. Each art teacher submitted one piece of artwork from their school. All the art teachers then voted and selected a piece of artwork to represent Spotsylvania in the elementary, middle, and high school contests. We would like to recognize our county’s winners and the VSBA winners in the following categories:
