Being the only art teacher in a K-8 (Title I) environment requires constant innovation, supplies, reference materials, books, and access to pertinent technology. Coming predominantly from at-risk neighborhoods, single parent households, and Spanish speaking families, Mater Academy students tend to be have less access to creative outlets, but still have the desire to express themselves creatively. It is my goal to provide my students with high quality art supplies that they may not have access to due to financial and familial constraints. Help me prove to my students that their desire to create is valid and worth investing in. Help me instill in them an appreciation for the arts, Econ's their knowledge of culture, and captivate their imaginations.
