Suzanne chose to integrate community history into her advanced art
class by asking her students to research, design, and paint a mural
depicting the Heights at the turn of the century. From books, photographs,
and a visit from lifelong Heights resident, Clayton Lee, her students
gathered information on the architecture, transportation, and fashions
of the period. Each student then created a sketch, which was projected
on to a wall at Hogg and became one part of the whole mural. At last,
with some creativity and a lot of paint, Suzanne and her students completed
the mural, a beautiful addition to Hogg Middle School's interior. For
