May 14—Area teachers and students aren't slowing down even though the end of the academic year is imminent. They continue to be active in the community, completing service projects to benefit others. Nellie Mitchell, an art teacher at Carl Junction High School, worked with students to paint a mural on the side of the Joplin History and Mineral Museum. The mural, depicting a native Missouri prairie, was designed by two of Mitchell's students, Avari Fifer and Olivia Wobken, and painted by students from Carl Junction, Joplin and Baxter Springs, Kansas.
