Among the many things the educators at Tulsaâs Monroe Demonstration Academy try to instill in their students is a quintet of core values.
When students are able to return to the school in early 2021, they will be greeted by physical representation of these values â Empowerment, Community, Respect, Responsibility and Excellence â in murals by Oklahoma artists that will adorn the schoolâs walls.
The first mural, 10-foot by 10-foot image on the theme of âEmpowermentâ by Oklahoma City artist Lucinda Jones, was completed last week. Tulsa artist Alexander Tamahn spent last week putting the finishing touches on the 8-foot by 24-foot mural he is creating to embody the concept of âCommunity.â
