Works of art

On Thursday, sixth-grader Emma Radulski, daughter of Stephen and Stephanie Radulski of Williamsport, left, learns how to solder her stained-glass panel together from instructor Carrie Bosh at Curtin Middle School. Bosch, of Muncy, a Lock Haven University graduate with a degree in studio art, was teaching the students how to make stained-glass art panels.
Instructor Carrie Bosch said the 13 students who took her stained-glass panel class at Curtin Middle School, 85 Eldred St., last week learned in 15 hours what she completed in a one-month college-level course. The class was part of the school’s first-ever summer camp classes that were designed to inspire excitement and creativity during summer break, according to Brandon S. Pardoe, school principal. “This was a collaborative effort between the school and the Parent Teacher Organization,” he said. “Mrs. Becky Renner (the parent of a student at Curtin) brought forth the idea. She’d had experience in organizing programs at the elementary-school level.” Pardoe began to recruit teachers to create enrichment courses that would be offered as part of the camp. “We wanted folks to offer something they had a personal interest in,” Pardoe said.
