Harrisburg Art Teachers recently attended the SDAEA Conference in Vermillion.
Jayme Wiertzema, Ashley Dunham, and Megan Petersen presented sessions, sharing their knowledge and creativity with fellow art educators from across South Dakota.
Ashley Dunham was also featured in the Educators at Work SDAEA Juried Art Exhibition, with her artwork on display at the Coyote Gallery in Vermillion.
Our teachers spent time learning new ideas, making connections, and bringing fresh inspiration back to their classrooms. We are proud of our Harrisburg art teachers for continuing to grow and support arts education!

Tonight, the School Board heard about the incredible opportunities our Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) provide for students beyond the classroom!
Through CTSOs, students build leadership skills, compete, serve their communities, connect with industry professionals, and put their learning into action—gaining confidence and experience that help prepare them for their futures. We are #TigerProud! 🐾
