WELCOME TO PRESCOTT
HOME OF THE PANTHERS

Have a great summer! See you in August.

 

The tile mosaic mural project for Prescott School was primarily funded by a grant from the Nebraska Arts Council. The students were asked what images come to mind when thinking about Prescott and the surrounding neighborhood and then asked to draw pictures of those things. The final design was a collaboration of those ideas drawn out by tile mosaic artist Ann Strizek-Cech. Mrs. Cech and students in fourth and fifth grade glazed over two hundred tiles that were then fired in a kiln and broken up. The life size drawing was then covered with the broken pieces by every kid in the school and even some of the adults...including Mr. Canny! The end result was then transferred to sheets of cement board and hung in the hallway by the office. The beautiful mural that you see is the creation of our talented students at Prescott.
