Hey, are you Pirates looking for an adventure? The fun doesn’t have to end just because school has started! Share your home with a foreign exchange student and help bring the culture and the experience to Pine Tree high school.
🎉 Congratulations to Pine Tree High School students Theone Frederick, Eva Vizueth, and Jezibella Martindale!
All three were named winners in the 2025 Texas School Safety Center Art Contest and had their artwork showcased at the Texas School Safety Conference this summer. 🖌️💛
The contest invited middle and high school students to submit original artwork highlighting their perspectives on school safety. Students could choose from three prompts:
• What is the biggest problem you and/or your peers experience at school?
• What does a safe school look like to you?
• What does your safe place from stress and worries look like?
✨ Winning Artwork:
Theone Frederick – “Drowning in Grades” (chalk pastel)
Eva Vizueth – “See my Thoughts” (chalk pastel)
Jezibella Martindale – “Burnt” (Prismacolor pencils)
We are so proud of their talent, creativity, and the way they represented Pine Tree ISD! 💙💛
