2026 Education Law Art Contest
Three talented high school students woke up to some exciting news this week as Atkinson, Andelson, Loya, Ruud & Romo (AALRR) announced the winners of its eighth annual High School Art Contest! Held in conjunction with the Firm’s Education Law Conference, the contest invited 11th and 12th grade students from schools across California to submit a piece of original artwork that creatively captures the theme of this year’s conference: Leading Through Change.
While the works themselves are varied, the themes students chose to depict—opportunities through education, the evolution of a fair and equitable legal system, and the role of mentorship in supporting future generations to grow and thrive—reflected a compelling vision for the future.
As a leader in education law, AALRR believes in giving back to the students and school districts its attorneys serve daily, and our annual Art Contest is one way in which the Firm accomplishes this goal. Each of the three winners will receive a $500 check, and their respective schools will receive $250 toward the purchase of art supplies.
There was a strong turnout this year from students across Southern California. The school districts from which these students were awarded include Northview Unified School District, Temple City Unified School District, and Upland Unified School District.
