High School HOA League Arts Festival Results

On Wednesday, April 1, Marion hosted the HOA League Art Festival, bringing together student artists from across the league to showcase their creativity and skill. Berean Academy was proud to participate, sending 15 students, each of whom had at least one artwork displayed in the competition.

The students arrived at the Marion Aquatic Center to see their pieces professionally displayed and evaluated by judges—a meaningful and exciting experience for each artist. After taking time to walk through the exhibits and draw inspiration from the impressive work of students from

other schools, the awards ceremony began. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd‑place winners were invited to collect their artwork and be recognized for their achievements.

Overall, Berean Academy students placed exceptionally well, making it a rewarding and memorable day for everyone involved. From creative growth to well‑earned recognition, the festival proved to be an enjoyable and encouraging experience for all.

Congratulations to the following Berean students!
