 Submitted / The Tribune

Across Alabama, the arts are not widely taught in schools. However, at Reeltown High School, the administration is trying to change that narrative.

Greg Shelton recently became the instructor of RHS’ newest visual arts class, which begins with an introduction to drawing. Students are then divided into groups focusing on photography, acrylic painting, charcoal and colored pencils or pastels.
