Old Town Animal Orphanage Paintings

8th grade students have been working since the beginning of the year on their pet portraits of the cats and dogs up for adoption at the Animal Orphanage in Old Town. We had a memorable day on our trip there! We got to name a new kitten and even see an adoption take place. Here are some of the great paintings students worked on.
