Congratulations to PJSHS's, Isabella (Bella) Thomas! Bella's ceramic creation, "Lungs of the Ocean," has earned a spot in this year's NCECA national exhibition in Richmond, VA, taking place from 03/20/2024 to 03/22/2024. Her commendable achievement reflects the high quality of her work. The submissions underscore the inspirational impact of ceramic education on a diverse range of students. Despite the challenging selection process due to an overwhelming 1169 entries, Bella's work, along with 150 others, will grace the exhibition. We take pride in Bella representing PCSD at this esteemed event!
