Bishop Luers seniors volunteered at the Diocesan All-School Mass for Catholic schools in the Fort Wayne area, held in the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum this morning. Some directed traffic in the parking lot, others greeted the fourth grade students and teachers as they arrived. Our Bishop Luers choir provided the sacred music for Mass along with Bishop Dwenger students and grade school students, directed by Bishop Luers Choir Director Kris Andorfer. #LuersSpirit

The Intro to 3D class has been working on portraits of Catholic Saints made entirely out of wire. The students each picked a saint to research, and then created a contour line drawing portrait. The line drawing was the base for the wire sculpture. They are currently creating pedestals for the sculptures with the name and symbols of their chosen Saint. The Advanced 3D class has been working on creating realistic shoe sculptures entirely made from cardboard. They first learned about the environmental impact of the mass production of sneakers, and then chose a real shoe to recreate in recyclable materials. They first used paper, and then cardboard. It has been a challenging and extremely messy project! #LuersSpirit
