Elementary artists ranked No. 1 in U.S.

Pea Ridge Elementary Schools still hold the top ranking in the Artsonia National Online Art Gallery competition. Long the top ranked Arkansas school, this year has marked the first time the school has been ranked in the top spot this far into the school year.

School rankings are determined by the amount of artwork submitted by each school and the amount of student interaction with their work with their written commentary displayed with their art. Points are also awarded for the number of fans each student attracts and the number of comments or compliments that each student attracts as well.

The school website is located at www.artsonia.com/pearidge2.
