Dedicated to Be the Best District in the State of Texas
On January 26, 2021, Magnolia ISD teachers delivered the Rodeo Art Finalist artworks to the NRG Center for the final round of judging, performed by the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo School Art Committee. The School Art Committee Judges reviewed all of the district’s artwork entries and selected Best of Show, Gold Medal, and Special Merit Award winners for all categories. We’re pleased to report the results of this show.
