This colorful mural was painted in 2005 on the west entrance of the Intermediate Gym was a project by students of John Dewey Learning Academy when it was located in the historic Lecompton High School building.  (2 of 4 panels shown) 
 
 
 
     
 
 
This is a free-form project by the members of Ms. Sue Lattin's art classes in 2005-06.  Students researched the Wizard of Oz characters, planned and painted the scenes on the west entrance to the gymnasium located directly south of Territorial Capital Museum.
