Congratulations to Valerie Song,
8th Grade for her submission to the Decorate the PTA Website Theme: Diversity My drawing shows diversity because it depicts people of different races and backgrounds playing volleyball together. I enjoy playing volleyball, so I decided to incorporate diversity into something I'm passionate about.
