IMAGINE YOUR POTENTIAL as a college student!

Congratulations to CVPA Senior Art IV students that received college scholarships from the Dallas Cowboys and Whataburger!
Keira Cloud $7500
Ryan Martinez $5000
Ryker Lawson $2500

The Cowboys have a long standing partnership with Arlington ISD Visual Art. Students in 5th grade, 8th grade, and Art IV tour the stadium and take part in a culminating art show at AT&T Stadium. Each class creates a unique piece inspired by the Cowboys! The CVPA Art IV piece this year is incredible and can be seen at our end of year show at the CVPA on May 15.

Special thanks to the Jones family, Whataburger Dallas Cowboys and Linh Nguyen, Assistant Fine Arts Director for Arlington ISD. Congratulations seniors!

Congratulations to CVPA students Keira Cloud and Monizz Sanchez who competed at the State of Texas Visual Arts Scholastic Event last weekend. Across the state, 32,518 works were adjudicated, and only 2,362 qualified for State!

Monizz received the high score of 4, and Keira received the Gold Seal award. Only 164 students in the entire state were selected as Gold Seal winners! This is Keira's 3rd time receiving this top honor.

Way to go Monizz and Keira!
