Allegiance through art: Huntley Middle School shows patriotic spirit

DeKALB – Last year, the Huntley Middle School Art Club asked itself what the Pledge of Allegiance meant to them.

Students’ answers now appear as eight different paintings mounted in the middle school’s main reception area for school officials, parents and occasionally students to see. On each of the paintings is a different passage from the pledge.

The first painting, which has inscribed on it, “I pledge allegiance to the flag,” prominently shows the superhero Captain America and the American flag.
