Perkins Pumpkin Contest

Tod Tomlinson loves Perkins and is working to become a famous artist.

Student artists decorated pumpkins at Perkins. Tod Tomlinson, who hopes to be a renowned artist someday, wins the pumpkin contest in Ms. McCoy’s art class.

In an interview with Tod, I learned that art is his favorite subject. I asked him why he chose the moon and a tree to draw on his pumpkin. He said, “Since it was Halloween, I decided to paint the moon; so why not paint a tree.”

I asked Tod if he liked Perkins? He responded, “I like Perkins because when I have questions teachers help me, and there are  lot of opportunities for me.”

It has been said that Perkins educates the whole child, and provides many opportunities for students to excel. This is another great story about the smartest kids, the best teachers, and the greatest parents in the world. Congratulations Tod! 😆
