Panther Nation Goes Rodeo

Every year, all levels of LISD step up to present their best artwork to the judges for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo... And this year was no different! During the fall, 1st - 12th grades were asked to create a piece of Western art and after weeks of hard work on their part, they did. On Friday, Jan. 13, 2017, the presentation was made and the judges' decisions finalized. Here were the results of their efforts...
