What is interesting in this mural is that the important things depicted cultural differences amongst the children.&nbsp; For example, Blue Lake was an important element for the students from the Taos Pueblo.&nbsp; Also depicted in this mural is a pine tree that was donated to the town of Toas by the Taos Pueblo as a symbol of cooperation amongst the different cultures living in the area.&nbsp; At the bottom of this mural are 17 daisies in memory of the victims of the Parkland shooting that happened during this time. <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/45bdd00ae9efc5a42de793fa02908a1af08204910ed024f0be60668b49f88faf/taos_main.jpg" data-mid="212565409" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/45bdd00ae9efc5a42de793fa02908a1af08204910ed024f0be60668b49f88faf/taos_main.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6c139a996c587abe07fb2864f8b8aa36eb6966df1de9e39f1f75c9c335675fdb/taosCU1.jpg" data-mid="212565410" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6c139a996c587abe07fb2864f8b8aa36eb6966df1de9e39f1f75c9c335675fdb/taosCU1.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dd70e70e5b59e1d349551e92c2553a52148756484b1470839758b7724c1ad342/taosCU2.jpg" data-mid="212565411" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dd70e70e5b59e1d349551e92c2553a52148756484b1470839758b7724c1ad342/taosCU2.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/047386939524d4ddd3412907984283fb4cabd3c10891ec49b81c7c7f922dc234/toasCU9.jpg" data-mid="212565429" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/047386939524d4ddd3412907984283fb4cabd3c10891ec49b81c7c7f922dc234/toasCU9.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6f23348f269e760b6591c3f320747b958ac54f2129eaf0b14e0b6b53abec40b6/toasCU4.jpg" data-mid="212565416" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6f23348f269e760b6591c3f320747b958ac54f2129eaf0b14e0b6b53abec40b6/toasCU4.jpg" /> Taos Middle School “Important Places Of Taos”Located by the Enos Garcia Elementary Library2017-2018 6th,7th Grade <img width="880" height="1080" width_o="880" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e84128ac4b1e4d2db115f1872ad7b9c55c698e1ad500b0e410649f459b336e32/toasCU8.jpg" data-mid="212565420" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/880/i/e84128ac4b1e4d2db115f1872ad7b9c55c698e1ad500b0e410649f459b336e32/toasCU8.jpg" /> <img width="880" height="1080" width_o="880" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d40552f046430ca71ba62c23619cbdf7700f2eb252b755b23b91dcd430519d97/toaskid3.jpg" data-mid="212565421" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/880/i/d40552f046430ca71ba62c23619cbdf7700f2eb252b755b23b91dcd430519d97/toaskid3.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="938" width_o="1500" height_o="938" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0ce407c75c79acadbb28e23e555db9281dd1d16e0c74923f43fc8ec5f7e7e793/taos_chris.jpg" data-mid="212565712" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0ce407c75c79acadbb28e23e555db9281dd1d16e0c74923f43fc8ec5f7e7e793/taos_chris.jpg" />
