Art at Justice Page Middle School is alive and well!
 
Did you know the murals on the building were done in 2019 by teacher, Elissa Cedarleaf Dahl and her students?  On her website, she also shows many of the inside murals done by her classes over the years.
 
From Elissa Cederleaf Dahl's website, "I teach a Mural Arts and Identity class at Justice Page School in Minneapolis, MN. Each school year, students work on collaborative murals to beautify our school and develop our identity- both individual and collective"
 
And from teacher Steven Schmitz says, "Before coming to JPS I taught a computer base art class at Marcy Open School called Graphic Arts. I have a M.Ed in Art Education, as well as a my B.A. (Visual Arts, Political Science) from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. In addition, I am a graduate of Washburn High School."
