Pins That Say “You Matter”

Reposted from Lake Shore High School | September 28, 2026 Throughout September, students in Seneca 3, 4, and 5 at Lake Shore High School learned the art of beading in Jacky Snyder’s Seneca Language classes. They used it to make Orange Shirt Day pins. Each pin will be given to a teacher, staff member, or someone special who helped a student feel seen, valued, and safe, and most of all, that they mattered. The project grew out of class conversations about the Every Child Matters movement. It is a time to remember the children who came home from boarding schools, to honor

Haring Lacrosse Art Website Is Live!

Rodney Haring recently shared “I’m excited to open a new space for my—our—evolving contemporary art practice. From the box, to the field, and now the canvas, lacrosse has always been part of my life. Through carving, steaming, bending, design, dream-storming, and abstraction, the work explores the sculptural possibilities of wood alongside rawhide and an evolving array of materials and mediums.
