Salmon River High School students recently showcased their talent along with students from across the region in two significant local art exhibitions: the Annual Middle School and High School Robideau Lamitie King Art Show, hosted by the Foothills Art Society in Malone, and the SUNY Plattsburgh Art Show.

Foothills Art Society Show

The Annual Middle School and High School Robideau Lamitie King Art Show brought together an array of works from talented students representing Malone, Chateaugay, St. Regis Falls, Brushton and Salmon River. The judging process, conducted by three independent judges, ensured impartiality, with artworks evaluated without knowledge of their originating schools.

A huge congratulations to all who participated, and a special shout-out to the Salmon River students who received well-deserved recognition:
