16 Art Students Place in 100 Neediest Cases Contest

Our art students are at it again—creating meaningful drawings for the 100 Neediest Cases Student Art Contest sponsored by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. A number of our talented Drawing, AP Drawing, and Painting students place in the competition each year. Artists placing in the top 40 have their work published in the Post-Dispatch alongside the 100 Neediest Cases stories through mid-December.

This year, MICDS art students earned 40% of the top 40 placements. Congratulations to our 16 talented student artists!
