The Von Renner Planter is complete. This was truly a labor of love that wouldn't have been possible without every single Von Renner Elementary School Cougars' family and friends who helped us raise funds through our many different activities. We fundraised for campus beautification, playground improvement, student enrichment assemblies with special guests and more. With your support and every Cougar helping paint pieces, this planter and it's beautiful mosaics was possible. There are so many hidden gems in the design. We invite you to come during our events to find as many Flufy's (ms. Yorke's classroom pet tarantula), ladybugs, snails, and dragonflies in this masterpiece. The artist and our volunteers finished installing the final pieces in June. The artist has shared a YouTube video she created to show the process of making the mosaics.
