Pavaia’i Elementary School has received national recognition through the prestigious America Celebrates display.
Artwork created by students from Ms. Loimata Siona’s 4th grade class has been selected for exhibition at the White House. This distinguished program features handcrafted ornaments representing every U.S. state, territory, and the District of Columbia, all showcased around the iconic National Christmas Tree. The ornaments submitted by Ms. Siona and her students were thoughtfully designed during the previous school year.
Each year, the America Celebrates program provides students across the nation with a meaningful opportunity to represent their home state or territory through original artwork that becomes part of a cherished holiday tradition in the nation’s capital. The National Christmas Tree, along with the accompanying state and territory ornaments, will remain on display at the White House through January 1, 2026. Visitors from around the world will have the opportunity to admire the creativity, talent, and cultural expression of young artists from across the United States including those from Pavaiai Elemetntary.
Congratulations to Ms. Siona, her talented students, and the entire Pavaia’i Elementary School community.
