FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/p>\n

GOING GREEN STUDENT ART CONTEST AT TEXAS SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF<\/strong><\/p>\n

GREEN SCHOOL MAKEOVER INSPIRES ECO-CONSCIOUS GENERATIONS OF THE FUTURE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Austin, Texas \u2013 April 25, 2012 Student artwork is on display today and open to the public through Friday, April 27 at the Texas School for the Deaf (TSD), as the school nears completion of its Green School Makeover.<\/p>\n

Today, students weigh in through various forms of artistic expressions demonstrating what GOING GREEN means at TSD. Awards will be given for 1st – 3rd place in four varying age groups.<\/p>\n

Guest judges from the community will score student\u2019s work today at 1:00 PM, including Francisco Villa of Francisco\u2019s Salon and Jim Holland, President of Eco-Wise – both neighbors of the school from the South Congress business district.<\/p>\n

The competition asked students to share their personal message demonstrating why it\u2019s important to care for our environment and how we can all do our part to GO GREEN, now, and for the sake of future generations. The art contest is a result of the school\u2019s recent selection as the top winner of Global Green USA\u2019s Green School Makeover Competition, sponsored by Pureology.<\/p>\n

TSD was chosen from more than 220 entries from public, private and charter K \u2013 12 schools across the country. TSD\u2019s ultimate Green School Makeover includes sponsoring a student art contest and boosting the school\u2019s recycling program, along with the installation of energy efficiency and sustainability upgrades. The makeover totals $130,000: $65,000 for school renovations and an additional $65,000 worth of technical assistance for the school and a film documentary of the entire makeover project.<\/p>\n

The school was nominated for the Green School Competition thanks to Villa, whose relatives attended TSD back in the 1950\u2019s.<\/p>\n
