I think we could put a mural on the wall of the front entrance of WFMS where they usually put the students'artwork. I think a collage of inspirational figures would be a good idea. Some of them that could be included are John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Lance Armstrong, Oprah Winfrey, Jim Henson, and John Lennon. Inspirational people that affect our lives come from all different kinds of backgrounds. Some are leaders, some are athletes, and others are everyday people that have contributed much of themselves to inspire others. I think that it is important to remember these people and what they have given us. I think that the words to accompany the mural would be, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." by Mahatma Ghandi. I think this quote would fit the mural because all of these people have changed things in the world and would inspire others to do the same. The colors used would be the colors that accurately depict the people on the mural. I think that any students that truly wanted to participate should be allowed to help.

A good wall to put a mural would be the wall where the people in the parking lot can see it while dropping off their kids. I think that it would be a good idea to put a big WEST SIDE drawing and make it look really cool. The colors blue and white would go with it and below it put WFMS. I think all the art teachers the authority and the students that aren’t allowed t go to the reward day at the end of the year.
i think we can put the mural on the wall of the front door. I think draw a polar bear on would be a good idea. we can write WFMS, Philosophy of life or some able to promote the learning of the sentence below there. I think we could in the every year before the final-year students in the graduation ceremony held at the event. As a result, every year on the mural are not the same ，and with the different meanings.

I think that we could put a mural on the wall in our school gym. I think it would make the kids more grateful that they have a nice school. Instead of having an old dirty one. If we put a mural on the gym wall, I think it should be of Mr. Delorenzo. He is the principle of our perfect new school. He changed a lot of stuff for us kids. The first day in the new school, I was so excited, because it was brand new. I was one of the first people at the new school.

I believe that a portion of the far corner of the gymnasium should be the area set aside for a mural. The reason that I think this is a good place is because, everyone is in the gym at least once a day. Also, when we have events people from other schools can see it.
I think that John Wooden, the long time basketball coach of UCLA basketball team should have a moral dedicated to him. He is retired now, but still is a big part of sports and competition. John Wooden led UCLA in 9 out of 11National Championships. He was an amazing coach. He believed in teamwork and aggressiveness at the same time.
The quote that I like is:
“Be quick, but don’t hurry.” - By that I meant make a decision, take action; decide what you are going to do and do it. Keep this word of caution in mind: Failure it act is often the biggest failure of all.”
JOHN WOODEN – UCLA – (retired basketball coach)
I think that I would use blue because it is one of our school colors. I would also put a picture of John Wooden holding a trophy. This would inspire others to be winners. I think that students that are artistic should draw the mural. The most important part is that every single student should be able to paint a small portion on the wall. This would help build team spirit and cooperation within the school. I think it would also let people know the examples of responsibility. I think that John Wooden is one of the greatest inspirations in sports as well as life!
Wesley Ashcraft- 4th Period
I believe that we could put a mural would be the wall on the other side of the gym between the distance learning lab and the base room. A good inspirational figure that could be placed on the mural would be Lance Armstrong. He has showed so many ways of strength and dedication and the love for what he does and he also had cancer. He over came his can and came back to win the Tour de France. He went through all this therapy just so he could be able to be a cyclist again. A quote by Lance Armstrong could be put with this mural, I heard this one day and never forgot it. “Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.” The colors that could be used would be yellow, black, red, white, and blue. Black and yellow because those are his favorite colors and red, white, and blue because that’s the color of the United States and our school. I think our best drawers should be the ones to make this mural with the help of Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Canady.

I think that the mural in the video could go on the wall in the gym in my school.A inspirational figuer that could be drawn on that space is some photos of black people who made some differences in the world to whites and blacks. I think that some words that could accompany the drawing are words about people not being Racist. I don't think it would matter what colors would be used in the mural. I don't think anything else needs to be included in the mural project at that school.

I think we could put a mural on the wall across from the trophy case. I think we could put the twin towers up in rememberance of them. Also pictures of Martin L. King. We could use dark colors to like the color of the sky at night time and put stars all around the buildings. Then, if we also put Martin L. King in it then we could use many different colors, like in this video. I think the words in rememberance of.. would be very good to put on the mural because then it would mean that everything that has happened in the past would be remembered.

i think we should put a mural in front of the school because it can help people around us and people in the neighbor hood. WFMS can become a better school with the mural because the students can learn more about school and the thing around us people.
I think that if we would put one anywhere it should be in on the wall of the cafeteria. I think that we would put Lance Armstrong, Michael Phelps,and Robert C. Byrd. All theses people have overcame something in their life. But they all worked hard to overcome all those things. I think yellow, green, and white. Because those colors have something in common with the people in the picture. I think kids from Marion County should work on it. After we are done we send a video to the people that we did it for.

I think we can put a good mural on one of the walls in WFMS. like any kind of things kids make or do like athleates from our school like the kids who play sports and support our school should go on the wall and tell about what they do if the scored or did not. ANd by where kids get dropped off put saying from martin luther king Jr And put posters up that say our schol rules
i think that there could be a mural on the wall that is in front of the library the one that curves.
On the wall they could put peoples art work,pictures of the school sports teams,pictures of the students,and the schools calder and events of the school.They could also put pictures of the teachers and special student.They could also put inspirering qoutes and people that can inspire the student to do better in school.A mural would be a good idea because it would show school spirit and maybe help people do better in school. That s my idea on a school mural.

orolaI think the wall along the lunchroom would be a perfect place for a big mural. I think that we should place martin luther king on that mural. His lifespan, his life, how he died, how he helped free the black people from slavery, and made all black rights. I think we should use black and yellow, his favorite color (yellow). His friends, family, and supporters of his decision.
i think there should be a mural on the wall right in front of mr.meletos room i think it should be of a big polar bear with west fairmont middle school written under it and it should be drawn by all of the art teachers in the school and i think the only colors that can be used are red,white,and blue.and the people that should be included in this picture are the signiture of the graduating class of that year.

I think a good place to put a moral at WFMS is in the cafeteria. The cafeteria would be a good place to put the mural because every student enters the cafeteria at least once every day and they could always see the mural. I think that Gandhi or John Lennon should be on the mural. One of the reasons I think they would both be good is that they both wanted peace. Red, White, and Blue would be the perfect colors for the mural. Every student in the school who wants to help should be allowed to paint the mural.

I think a mural should be placed on the wall behind the bleachers in the gymnasium. I think this is a good place because it will be a daily reminder to the students that great accomplishments can come from hard work and perserverance. Also, visitors coming from other schools can see it when we are touring or giving county-wide presentations.
I think Michael Jordan should be placed on the mural. He signifies hard work. He never gave up on his dream of playing basketball even after he didn't make his high school basketball team. Also, he accomplished more things playing the game of basketball than most people do in a lifetime. And doing that is harder than you think.
I think the quote should be, "Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen" by Michael Jordan. Underneath the quote, in smaller letters it should say: WFMS, Making things happen since 2007.
The color of the text should be royal blue and Michael Jordan should be in his Chicago Bulls uniform. In the corner, I think it should have a red, white, and blue paw print to show that we are the polar cubs and those are our school colors.
I think everyone that attends the school or works at WFMS should be able to participate in the creation of the mural.
Gabby Tenney 3rd
I think we could put a mural on the blank wall in the cafeteria so everyone could see it. I think John F. Kennedy or Martin Luther King Jr., or Michael Phelps should be on the wall. For John or Martin, I think a quote would fit them best, for example, a quote from their speeches an an inspirational message for Michael like "Nothings Impossible" or "Go For The Gold", or "Follow Your Dreams".
I would say abstract colors like blue, yellow, red, and green for them and shapes in the background like colored waves. I would say everyone should be included, but they don't have to if they didn't want to.
Madison Fitch
3rd Period
I think the wall in-between the entrance of the 5th grade wing and the doors to the bus pick up is a good place to put a mural. I personally think right there should be an image of a political figure. An image of Barack Obama and John McCain should be on it. Barack’s picture should be on the left and John’s picture should be on the right. In the middle should have the words does it really matter who is the president… It should be a grayscale.
Alex Keefover
I think a good place to put a mural is in the gym it has a lot of space to put something big like that. Someone I think should be are people are like Harriet Tudjman, Oprah Winfrey, and Martin Luther King. The words I would put are world changers because with the actions they have done they've helped change the world for the generations to come and made it better. The colors on the mural would be positive ones like yellow, light blue, light green, purple and red. With the mural from are school I think Mrs. Constable should be included in it because she is an amazing teacher and without her we 8th graders would not be ready to go to high school with out her she is like a fountain of null age just pouring in to are minds.
I think the best wall to put a mural on would be the wall that they put the V.I.P names on. Some inspirational figures could be Oprah, Martin Luther King, and maybe even Barack Obama, now that he is the first african american to become the president of the United States. Some words would be maybe some famous quotes what was said by the inspirational figure what would be chosen. I think bright colors would be good to use. I think this because bright colors always brighten things up and when things are brightened up, to me, they seem more enjoyable. I think everyone should be included because it would be a big impact on the school
Ali Sansalone
4th period
I think that there should be a mural on the long wall in the lunch room. The mural should deliver the message of “If you believe you can achieve.” The mural should display a picture of Albert Poljus, first baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals, because he came to the US and didn’t know any English. He had to believe that he could learn the language and he is now fluent in the English language. I think the words believe and achieve should be displayed to simply tell student that they can do it. All kinds of colors should be displayed in the background with the image of Albert Poljus. The variety of colors will illustrate that anyone can achieve great things. This mural will have a good audience because in will be located in the main part of WFMS lunch room and will reach all WFMS students.

1st and 2nd period
i beleive the stairwells would be good places for the murals because its a vast area. I think that the inspirational figure should be the gods of olympus in water colors because there are many stories that go with them and many of which are of heroics or accomplishment.
We ccould place a mural in the cafateria by the gym.Barack Obama or Martin Luther King Jr.I had a dream or A change will be made.Brown black white red and blue.Anybody that wants to becouse it is for a good couse and everybody should be able to contribute to the mural to show a act of school spirit.
I think that we can put a mural on the wall of the front entrance of the school. I think that we could put a collage of a bunch of different stuff like all the grades could help to put together so when people walk in they can see all the artwork that we put together. Some words that could accompany the drawing are like different inspirational words. Some colors that should be used I think should probably school colors I just think it would look very cool. I think everyone in the school should be included.

I think that we should put a mral on the big wall in the cafeteria so every one could see it and people could even see it through the big window in the lunch room. the inspirational figures we could put on it could be anything and it would be up to the kids in the school who we put up on the mural. the words that accompany the mural could be famous quotes by the people on the mural. we should uese bright colors on the mural. i also think we could put Mr.delorenzo, Mr. neptune, and Mr.coleman on the mural because they are what keep this school a good place to learn.

I think we should put a mural on the front entrance wall so if someone is visiting the first thing they will see inside of the school is the mural. I think we should put some pictures together of the students and teachers of all grades.I think the words that would accompany this mural would be something about the students. The school colors should be used red, white, and blue. I think all students should participate in the mural project.

i think that a mural could be placed in the lunch room because everyone has to go to the lunch room every day to eat lunch there for everyone would see it. You could also put it in the gym but not as many people would see it. You do not go to the gym as oftten as you go to the lunch room. an inspiartional figure would be a big mural of diffrent people who has changed the world in the own way. The words that i would pick to accomplish this figure would be some thing like, changing the world on person at a time. then under that you could put when is it your turn? The colors that could be used would be the colors of all 50 flags.because you are talking about all around the world. i think the people who should be included in this project is the sudent counseil, and are school presadent.

The best place for a mural at our school would be in the cafeteria, becuase everyone enters in that area and leaves in the area.Also it is a very open place.I think a mural of Barrack Obama.Why Barrack Obama, becuase He broke the burrea for all the woman and for all the races.The words be parts of his speech he made after he one.The colors would be all the colors.Everyone in Fairmont should be included in this.
The best place to put a mural is the wall by the office as soon as you walk in the front door. The person that it should be is Dwight Eisenhower because he was Supreme Allied Command, five star general, and the president of the United States. The words that follow it are you can do any thing you set your mind to. The colors that it would be painted in is red , white , and blue for the American flag and green for his military suit.
I think we could put the mural in our school gym.I think we could put a picture of the Rocket Boys.They could put in big graffiti "the rocket boys".white,black and gray could be used in the writing. I dont think anybody in our school should be on it.
I think that a good place for mural would right when you walk into the front of the school on the right where they put the fifth and sixth graders art work. This place would be good cause it is where every person would be able to see it. An example of an inspirational figure would be someone like Lance Armstrong. Some words that would be with it would be like he fought till live or never give up. Main color that should be used is yellow cause that is the color of all of his sportswear and everything else that is Armstrong. I think that all of the extremely talented drawers should be the ones included in this project and the other kids can supervise.

I think they could put a mural at WFMS where the very important students names are. I think they could draw, maybe someting that can show how good behavior, and god work can pay off. They could put "Try your best, and you might get rewards in exchane." I think tehy should put lost of different colors. ALl f the Very important Polar Cub students should be included, and should help make it too.
At our school we could put a mural along the wall going to hte cafitearia. A inspirational figure could be polar bears and our shcool colors.The words that we could put on the drawling is We are Proud To Be A Polar Bear Cub. The kind of colors that we would use on the picture is our school colors which are red, white, and blue.The people that should be included would be our entire school would have something to do wiht the mural.
I think you could put the mural on the wall of the library because that is were you could read books on martin luther king and you can learn his history and I just think that is a good place to put it.
If I was to put a mural somewhere in the school it be on the in the cafeteria up against the wall up separating the cafeteria and the gym. The inspirational figure I would put on the mural it would be of Thomas Edison and his success quote "The three great essentials to achieve anything worth while are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense." It would be in multi-colors.
I think we should put the mural on the wall when you enter the office and one in the cafeteria. I think it should be about heroes in everyday life, like firemen and police officers or people like your mom or dad. I think every student should draw a mural. The words on the poster should be something inspirational or funny. The colors should be any colors that you want.
Laura Tennant 4th period
I think that there should be a mural in the cafeteria because the students are there every day at lunch and breakfast. It could be a polar bear cub. It could represent the school. It could say study hard and have fun. The colors could be red, white, and blue. The art teachers and the student who do well in art class or can draw well.
I think that a good plave to put a mural in our school is on all four walls of the library. There is alot of light coming in from the windows in the ceiling if the library. I think that we should put a collage of inspirational figures of the new century. Like Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama. An extremely large variety of colors should be used. The mural shouldn't look very realistic. It should be a form of modern art. I think that the faculty and students who are mature and won't play around with the painting should be the ones making it.

I think the wall when your driving into the school parking lot would be a good place for a mural. I think people that made a change of something would be placed on the mural. Such as Obama,Martin Luther King Jr., or Rose Parks. They all made a difference in the world but Obama is on his way of making a difference. YES WE CAN MAKE A CHANGE!!! The words i would put around the drawing is "Yes we can make a change". The main colors i would probably use is something bright and exciting to show excitement and to say that you beleive in what it says. Anybody who is going to put their effort into the mural and feel like they really want to do it should be aloud. everyone should be able to do it.
~♥~Courtney Jones~♥~
The wall I think would be a good idea to place a mural would be outside the gym, in the cafeteria. It could be seen by all the students during lunch periods and by others when going into the gym for ballgames.
I really don’t know of an inspirational figure I would recommend to place on the wall. It would be need to be something or someone that all persons could relate to. Words of encouragement would need to be on the mural. Everyone needs encouragement young people as well as older people. Bright blue and red. They are eye catching colors that would draw your attention, plus they are our school colors.
Any students that want to participate, that will be responsible and take the project seriously should be allowed. There should be a feeling of pride in the student body when the project is completed. Something that all can enjoy.

If a mural could be placed on any wall in the school I would put in the cafeteria. I would put it here so everyone could see it. I would choose Dr. Martin Luther King, J.R. as the person to be portrayed because he chose to not use violence and is a good example of a true leader. The words that would accompany the picture would be “Content of their character” because of his famous speech on what he believes people should be judged by. The colors that would be used are red, white, and blue because they are the school colors and the colors of our country. I think that who ever want to be included can be.
Jared Burns
4th Period
A wall that we could make a mural on could be in the gym. We could make mural of the West Fairmont Cub or even a mural of Abraham Lincoln. I think that the words WFMS would suffice if the mural was the cub for West Fairmont. Or the word "wisdom", if we decided to make the mural of Abraham Lincoln. I think that it could have a graffiti affect of colors. I think that the eighth grade only should be included, because I don't think that the younger kids would do as nice of a job. Andrew Strand 4th period
A mural could be placed in the back wall of the music room. The inspirational figure I would choose to be in the mural would be John Lennon. I would choose John Lennon because, his aunt had told him he would never have a career playing guitar, and he is now one of the most successful guitarists in history. The inspirational message would say “Ordinary People Do Extraordinary Things”, just like the blog we did at the beginning of the year. Bright colors would be used to draw attention to the mural. Any student that wishes to volunteer would be permitted to work on the mural.

(PS: John Lennon and all The Beatles are Beasts!)
I think that a mural could be placed in the cafeteria of my school because every student has to go there everyday for lunch so everyone would get to see it. I think that Barrack Obama would be good because he is the first black president in history. Martin Luther King Jr. would also be a good person to be on the mural. All kinds of bright colors would be good for this so it would grab your attention and brighten up our cafeteria since it is all white.
Nick Trefz

In the hallways I think would be a good place for one.I think that we could put a picture of what ever the kids of WFMS want they could have a vote and the popular vote would be on the wall.The colors that would be on the wall would be colorful colors that would stand out.I think that should be included in the painting is the peoples names that did the project.
Cienna Wright
3rd period
I think that a good place for a mural in our school is the front wall where all of the 5th and 6th graders have their artwork hung up. I think that we could have a Polar Bear and a Polar Bear Cub and then have one or more inspiring quote by it. The quote would be something like, "Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude", by Thomas Jefferson. Also, "If you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it", by William Arthur Ward would be a good quote to be placed on a mural inside a school. Of course, red, white, and blue would be the main colors, but there could be other bright colors included. I think that the Faculty and Staff and the kids who have not been a problem during the school year should get to help.
Shannon Yost
3rd Period
If there was a mural it should be in the entrance of the school. I think Barrack Obama would be a good person to be in the mural. I think he should be in the mural because he was the first black president. I think the words that could be on the mural would be “I have a dream” from Martin Luther King. I heard it in the video and I feel that it would be very inspirational for a person to read that quote every day that they walk into the school. The colors that would be used are black and white. In the background there would be former presidents behind him. I think it would inspire people to try hard and believe that you can be whatever you want to be.

I think we need a mural in our school on the wall in the lunch room on the oppisite side of the windows because there is a big blank wall there and it looks so ugly and out of place. There could be so many murals of people we could put on the wall but i think we need a anti Dr.Phares sign on the wall.The colors i think that would work would be red black and white.
We should put a mural in our gym. It would be nice to hang it up on an empty portion that is just white. We should make it a polar bear to represent our mascot. It could also be an eagle to show how "high" class we are. haha...or not. We could make the bear white with a blue background. We could also add some red to make it more patriotic. An inspirational phrase could be many things such as Welcome To West Fairmont Middle School. Even a small little phrase like this can brighten up someone's day. We should include our school principal, Mr. Delorenzo in this mural.
I think we could put a mural in the lunch room, everybody goes there and there is plenty of wall space. If it was up to me, I'd put somebody like Adam Gontier or Avril L. I would but a message that said something that has to do with being yourself. I would use a combination of colors, everything from black to white. Everyone should be included!
I say that we could place a picture on the ceiling of our gym. A lot of people look up when they get in trouble or they are feeling down. I say just put all of the African Americans who made a difference in our life on there. The word that accompanies the picture is great. There is no other word for it. I say yellow and bright blue because they are very bright and they make a difference in peoples attitudes. There are way too many people to be named. There are so many inspirational people that you cannot name them because you might leave of a few people.

A wall in the school that's big enough for a mural is the wall by the trophy cases. Another wall is the cafeteria wall, everybody would be able to see it.
It could include faces of all of the notable presidents in the world. Along with the mural, you can put famous quotes from some of the presidents. I would pick to have gray, black, and white for the colors to try and make it look like it's old. All of the teachers and the students that didn't get many points should be able to help make it.

I think that the wall along the main hallway of the school would be an excellent place to put a mural up. The main hallway is an excellent place because at some point in time the students of west Fairmont middle school walk in this hallway everyday! It’s an excellent way to show off the mural. I think that the mural should be an inspirational aspect, or person. I personally think that the mural should be a polar bear cub, or even the students at west Fairmont middle school. I think that Martin Luther King Jr. would be an inspirational person and the idea of a polar bear cub but I think the students of west Fairmont middle school should vote for what they would like to see in the hallway that they walk everyday. If it were me to decide I think that I would pick the polar bear cub to show how proud we are to be one.
The inspirational words that would go along with the mural would be (in my opinion) the saying C.U.B.S! Everyone already knows what that stands for, so I wolln’t write it down. The colors that need to be used in this mural would have to be BRIGHT colors so that way everyone would be able to see!! The people that I think need to be included in this mural would have to be the students, teachers, and volunteers that helped.

I think that the best place for a mural in our school would be in the main hallway. That is where the students enter and leave each day, and they would see that mural each and every day.
I believe that the students should vote on who to put in the mural, because it's supposed to be an inspiration to them, and in order to do that, it has to be someone that is important to them.
Whomever the students choose to put on the mural, we should get an inspirational quote to go with the portrait.
We should use all kinds of different colors, to show that, yes, we ARE the polar bear cubs, but we all live on this one Earth.
Everyone should be able to contribute a little to this mural. We could ask each student to draw on the mural what is most important in their life, and their drawing could be accompanied by a small picture of that student. Soon, the entire wall will be filled with paintings and pictures.

i think alot of people in our school could benefit from a mural in our school.The majority of the students and staff would benefit most from a mural placed across from the office,by the main entrance.A mural could also be painted somwhere in the gym, though I'm not exactly sure where it would go. A mural of past presidents like John F. Kennedy or actors who have gone through struggles in their lives. There are many empty walls in WFMS so there should be more than one mural.There could be a seperate mural for Olympians and a seperate one for importan figures in West Virginia.It would be great to have quotes from the leaders on the murals. There should be a mural with MLK on it and quotes fom him like ,"I have a dream". The murals should be inspirational and be accompanied by bright colors that are create an uplifting feeling. Maybe there should be certain murals that only students should be allowed to work on and teachers could make a mural of their own.The students here at WFMS are very creative and I think some teachers have some creativity in them,too.
I really liked this video. It was interesting to me. I think the wall that should a mural on it at our school is the wall in the cafeteria where the doors to the gym are. All students spend a lot of time in the cafeteria for various reasons, and that wall is always bare. It needs some color or something to brighten up the school.I think a big peace sign would be a great inspirational figure. It could show the students that peace should be showed in action everywhere and even at school. I think the words that should accompany the mural are P-patience, E-except, A-apartide C-continue life,E- effort. The colors that would be used are green, blue, and purple.Green is a sothing color and is the new color of love. All three of the colors are cool which makes them relaxing, Relaxation prevents fights and chaos. I think our school mascot should be included in the mural because surprisingly kids my age look up to the mascot i think. The mural would be a great project for our school. I hope to see it in progress one day.

I think we could put a mural on the wall by the counselor's offices.I think a mural of Martin Luther King,Rosa Parks,Barrack Obama,and Lance Armstrong.Inspirational people that affect our lives come from all different kinds of backgrounds.They all have prooved many points for the world.
I think we should put a mural beside the art room hallway. People that take art class in our school can draw pictures of people that we study in art like Andy Warhol or Camile Pissaro. Every time we learn about a new person, we could draw it on the wall. We could put all of our names around the picture that signifies that we drew it ourselves. We could use a clash of colors. Purple,blue,and pink would be really pretty on the mural. As I said before, I think that all of the art students at our school should participate in the mural.

I think we could put the mural on the wall in the cafeteria were everybody can see it.I think Marten Luther King Jr should be the inspirational figure could be drawn. The words should be like "What is your Dream." Black and White should be the colors.
I think the wall by the entrance to the gym in the cafeteria would be a great place. Most everyone passes through the cafeteria and a lot of people would see it. We could draw any inspirational figure or figurine. We could draw Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr, Mr. DeLorenzo, John F. Kennedy, Theodore Roosevelt, and many others. We could use speeches they have spoken or songs people have written to honor them. I think we should use colors like the colors used in the video, contrasting and matching colors. That would make it look really awesome. I think everyone should get the opportunity to participate in the project. Not just the art classes or kids who can draw good, if everyone can participate, it would look even better. And it would have a lot more meaning. If every kid participated in a picture of Mr. DeLorenzo, then it would have more meaning than if just the eight grade and his daughter.

I think that they could put it in the gym. So everyone can see it,because they have to go in there weither it is in the morning or in gym class. Martin luther king, rosea parks, god, omaba, and manhy more. He was a black man the fought for white and black to be together. black,gold,white,green,red,purple,pink,yellow,and blue. I think anyone that would help the school out would be able to have their face up on a wall.
A mural could be placed in the hall that leads into the lunch room from the DL Lab and Computer lab. I think that there should be more than one person and they should be the founding fathers of our perfect country, and should be displayed as George Washington looking of to his left(our right)be looking at Benjamin Franklin then Tomas Jefferson, next to him is John Hancock then in much smaller size, the other 53 people that signed if there is a picture of them. Then there should be words that look like the are on a piece of parchment paper and it should say " Ita a Populus eram prognatus" which roughly means
"And so a Nation was born" . To decorate the background should be the American Flag. I think due to the envisioning of the mural, the creator should be involved and a team of professional artists should be hired to do the face work, but the creator may pick 5-10 students to make the American Flag.

A place in this school would be there cafeteria or the gym because every student has gym at one point or another and every student goes in the cafateria to eat. An inspiration figure that could be drawn could be someone like Martin Luther King Jr. or Just a picture shwong someone caring for the planet. Some words to be used could be used is. " I have a Dream" by Martin Luther King. I would use bright colors to get people attention. Anyone who is willing to use effort should be included in this project.

the bathroom marbel. what martin luther king jr. said. red white and blue can be the colors.
A wall in the school where a mural could be posted is in the gym. We could use martin luther king and say stand up for your own belifs. Another good thing to put is are school colors. I think that any student should be able to pitch in on the project.
I think that a wall that you could paint a mural is in the main hall way where art work is normally hung. The mural should be of MLK and the words to go with him should be, "he had a dream, do you? Anything is possible." I think the colors should be as realistic as possible and the words should be black,so it looks more formal. And only the most artistic people should be included so it looks very amazing.
I think in our school we should have a mural on the gym wall because that is mostly where most of the people go for activites. The inspirational figure should be the polar bear cub like put the date when the first school opened to the day they closed it. I think the colors we should use is our school colors red, white, and blue. well i think the all the principals and teachers should be on this mural.

think we could put a mural on the wall of the front entrance of WFMS where they usually put the students'artwork. I think a collage of inspirational figures would be a good idea. Some of them that could be included are John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Lance Armstrong, Oprah Winfrey, Jim Henson, and John Lennon. Inspirational people that affect our lives come from all different kinds of backgrounds. Some are leaders, some are athletes, and others are everyday people that have contributed much of themselves to inspire others. I think that it is important to remember these people and what they have given us. I think that the words to accompany the mural would be, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." by Mahatma Ghandi. I think this quote would fit the mural because all of these people have changed things in the world and would inspire others to do the same. The colors used would be the colors that accurately depict the people on the mural. I think that any students that truly wanted to participate should be allowed to help.

I think a good wall for this mural project would be the big loop that goes around the library, that big white wall could use some color. i think something that promotes following your dreams and never looking back would be good. I think, dreams, imagination, confidence, and dedication would be wonderful words. The colors of the rainbow would make this look amazing. All the art teachers and about 5 or 10 of the most artistic people in the school.

I think it could be placed where the clock is in the cafeteria. Then everyone would see it when they look at the clock. I think Einstein could be placed on it. I think this because hes a genious, and we are at school. Maybe achieve, or dream big, or think smart something like that could be placed under him. Bright colors, reds, blues, yellows, greens, hot pink, those colors. All the achievers should be included. The ones who complete there work and help others!

OLIVIA BOLLING 6/7...i think it would be nice to have a mural some where in the school. because i thinks murals are so pretty they make everything look so much nicer and prettier. making a mural in the school would probally be really nice it would in spired alot of people. at miller and dunbar there were paintings on the wall of tigers and patriot people they were kinda like murals so i think we should have paintings on the wall of polar bear cubs and things like that.
i think we should put one on the gym door like kids playing or somthing.or like a picture of martin luther king.
i think that they should put a painting between the two sets of gym doors ! i think they should put a mural on the greatest rock legends . maybe jimmy hindrix or john lennon . those two are the gretest :O). i think we should remember these two because there would be no rock without those two ! the qoute shold be Life is like a box of chocolate yoiu never kno wht yu are gonna get
!! only becaus e when someone asked jimmy hindrix to plat the national anthum he rerote it !
I think that we could but a mural on the wall behind the bleachers in our our gym. An object that we could paint on the wall is a polar bear and a polar bear cub. They could put some kind of a qoute over it that could inspire the kids of west fairmont middle school. I think the colors of our school sould be used the the mural. I think that wfms students and staff should all be included but it should be their choice wheaher or not they want to be included in the project.
