During the first six-weeks of school at Haywood Junior High, the art students in the first trimester learned how to change flat, two-dimensional shapes into three-dimensional forms. The students were encouraged to use at least three degrees of shading/values (light, medium, and dark). Students also learned how to place the forms on the page correctly, how the light source coming in from the upper right would cause the opposite side of the form to be the darkest area, and how to place cast shadows in the correct areas.

There were four students who were voted by the faculty and staff as having the most outstanding forms among all the art students. These students were: Bailey Cozart, Casie Hall, Samantha Pittman and Ryan Watson. The students are learning art under the direction of Mrs. Anita Rickman.

MARTIN, Tenn. – The University of Tennessee at Martin and Haywood County officials are asking individuals and representatives of business and industry what educational opportunities they would want provided in the county. An educational needs assessment survey is included on page ** of today’s edition and asks local residents’ opinions about a number of educational issues. Completed surveys are due by Nov. 15 and can be mailed to the Office of Extended Campus and Online Studies, UT Martin, 110 Gooch Hall, Martin, TN 38238. The survey is also available online at www.utm.edu/haywood and click on “Please answer a few questions about Haywood area needs.” “UT Martin has a long history of quality service to West Tennessee, and we are excited about partnering with Haywood County to further move the region forward,” said Dr. Jerald Ogg, vice chancellor for academic affairs. “We can’t help if we don’t know what is needed, however, so I hope everyone will take the time to take this short survey and provide us with this important feedback.” The survey for individual respondents asks about the types of credit and non-credit courses that interest them and whether they would prefer classes offered at a Haywood County facility, online or via distance learning (live, interactive video). The survey for business and industry representatives asks whether they provide financial support for employees who complete college credit or non-credit courses, if they contract for training with any other agency or institution

and if they have a company distance-learning facility. Both surveys ask the optimal time for classes, include demographic questions and provide space for additional comments from respondents. Based on the information collected from the surveys, UT Martin will determine the most effective and efficient ways to address the area’s educational needs. “UT Martin ‘s goal is to serve educational needs of Brownsville and Haywood County by any means possible. We want to serve the general student population, as well as, industries in the area. We want Haywood County and Brownsville to grow and education is a way to help,” said Dr. Tommy Cates, UT Martin Extended Campus and Online Studies executive director.
