February 19, 2008 — Four CFISD students’ artwork was selected to be part of the Texas Art Education Association (TAEA) Youth Art Month Capitol Celebration. The exhibit showcases Pre-K through 12 th-grade works of art from across the state of Texas in the ground floor rotunda of the State Capitol from Feb. 29 through March 8, 2008.

The four students representing CFISD are Cypress Creek High School sophomore Laela Ezzedine, Hancock Elementary School second-grade student Hayden Geary, Gleason Elementary fifth-grade student Guadalupe Solis and Hamilton Middle School eighth-grade student Marianna Yoder.

“ We are thrilled that four of our seven entries will appear in this exhibit,” said Sarah Sanders, CFISD art coordinator. “Credit goes to these creative young artists and their dedicated teachers.”

The students will be honored during a special awards program and reception on March 2 in the Capitol auditorium, followed by a reception for student artists and their guests in the Capitol Grill.

Cypress Creek HS sophomore Laela Ezzedine’s piece Blue Zone is one of four works by CFISD students that will appear in the State Capitol as part of the TAEA Youth Art Month Capitol Celebration.

Hamilton Middle School eighth-grade student Mariana Yoder's artwork, "Left Behind," was also selected to appear in the State Capitol.
