Riley Elementary 5th graders got creative in art class this week!
Students learned about self-taught artist Laurel Burch and her love of painting colorful, expressive cats. After exploring her style, students followed a guided drawing and began painting their own unique versions.
A big thank you to Bobe’s Pizza for donating boxes that were turned into mini easels—giving students a fun and creative way to bring their artwork to life.
Check out some of the work below. Students will continue working next week to add details and finish their masterpieces. We can’t wait to see the final results!

On Thursday, fifth graders from Riley Elementary School visited Vincennes University, where they spent the day participating in hands-on activities designed to build awareness and understanding of disabilities.
Through these experiences, students learned about the challenges individuals with disabilities may face and gained insight into how people with disabilities live, work, and navigate everyday life.

These Wildcats in Mrs. Eaton’s 4th grade class had a fun day exploring the history of Vincennes!

Here is a look at some of the moments from their adventure through history.
