Mount Pleasant High School Art students entered 61 art pieces in the Region 8 Visual Arts Scholastic Event (VASE) competition on Saturday, February 24 at Chisum High School, competing against 17 schools in our area. Art pieces were scored as a 4 (Excellent), a 3 (Strong), a 2 (Developing), or a 1 (Emerging). Fifty-five of the MPHS pieces received medals and four students have advanced to state with six different works. Only 27 pieces out of 317 in the entire region qualified for state so MPHS students made up over 20% of those advancing.
