Students in Mr. Wilmes’s 3D Art class at Muskogee High School are combining creativity and engineering to build wearable paper-mâché masks from cardboard, tape, and newspaper. They’re testing their designs, getting hands-on, and having a blast! Who needs a Halloween costume idea?! 🎃






Welcome back, Roughers! We hope you had an amazing Fall Break and are ready to finish the semester strong! 💚
