In the spring of 1st grade, Trista participated in a district wide art project. All students 6th grade and under created an 8x8 piece of artwork symbolizing the core values of Sam Walton. Trista chose to represent RESPECT. The students then all placed their artwork on the high school football field and it was transformed into a mural that was put on the side of a building in downton Bentonville. We have looked for Trista's artwork before when we have been downtown, but we did not have her original to help remind us what to look for - well...I found it this weekend so we went up there Sunday night and found her place on the wall.....very cool!
Trista described her picture as having bubbles with examples of Respect in each one:
- holding Mom's hand
- opening the door for a friend
- saying the pledge of alligience to the flag
- taking care of her brother Trey (he was crawling in this picture - it is not a dog :)
