There have been many occurrences at Los Banos High School over these past few days. Let’s take a look at what’s recently been going on and be up-to-date.

Mural Contest

There has been encouragement from the school to students at home to participate in a Mural Contest. LBHS Vice Principal Ms. April Latta explains that “Student’s enter their artwork to be considered for a mural on the library.” Ms. Latta also shared how the process works. “Submit by Nov 1st, staff votes and student that wins gets to paint the mural”, she stated. There is also no limit to the amount of submissions. Ms. Latta also states the motive behind this event is “so students can display their talent and show pride in their school”.

This announcement was posted to all class level google classrooms.

Artists Wanted Hey Tigers! We miss you! We have been working hard to make LBHS a cleaner and safer environment for you when you return. We have just completed cleaning up the library area and added a fresh coat of paint. This freshening up is now begging for your creativity! We would love for students to be the ones that create murals for the freshly painted walls. What does this entail? 1. Submit your proposal of artwork to Ms. Latta at [email protected] by November 1st. 2. Staff of LBHS will vote and select several of the submissions. Those chosen will be able to create their work of art on the library themselves for future Tigers to marvel. 3. Artwork will be painted to scale on the wall as determined and the supplies will be provided. 4. Artwork should reflect Tiger Pride, inspiration, culture or positivity. Good Luck and Get Creative!
