Picasso would be proud: Nolan Middle students complete mural

The Manatee County School District may be in financial disarray, but the students never cease to display their many talents. 
Fifteen talented art club students from Nolan Middle just completed a three-month long mural project representing the Health Occupation Students of America  and future health professionals. 
 Under the direction of the school’s art teacher, Wade Smith, students used images of wholesome food production in an agricultural theme for the 9’ x 6’ mural painted on the school’s cafeteria, supporting the importance of dairy, grains, fruits and vegetables. 
Nolan Middle School HOSA advisers Pam Rahn and Michelle Boculac, secured a grant for the mural.
The mural is dedicated to health professionals and to the nationwide movement focused on fighting childhood obesity and is meant to empower kids to take control of their own health.
"The dedication of our HOSA advisors, Ms. Rahn and Ms. Boculac and FACTS advisor, Mr. Smith is absolutely incredible," said Nolan Middle principal nancy High.  "Through their coordinated leadership, we have a beautiful mural in our cafeteria that depicts the importance of good nutrition."
