Wondrous Jungle for Meadow's Library in Mineola

Second-grade students at Meadow Drive School in the Mineola Union Free School District recently completed a mural to contribute to the school’s library.

The jungle collage was inspired by famous artist Henri Rousseau and was created to theme of “wonder.“ The mural will be the second of four to be included in the school’s library. Last year’s second graders created a mural to theme of “explore“ and future second-graders will contribute murals to themes of research and discover.
