Abstract:
Badin Elementary School in Stanly County has a new teaching aid. Painted by Susan Rice, a large mural fills the school's library. The mural includes lifelike nature scenes from around Stanly County and includes a variety of animals and plants. Measuring seventy-one fee high by nine feet long, the mural took over 600 hours to paint. Rice planned the project with school Principal Elvin Fisher. The mural created a lot of excitement as over 300 people came to the unveiling.
