My Students

My 2nd grade students are amazing! They are very creative and enjoy art. Unfortunately, we don't have a place to dry the student created painting or artwork. A drying art rack will help keep the art work in a secure place and away from the floor.

My class is made up of 12 boys and 12 girls.

They are the best second graders! They are very smart and articulate. They enjoy reading and sharing their stories with the rest of the class. My class enjoys the time they get to be spontaneous and creative as they are making original art creations.

My Project

My second grade class will really benefit from having a drying rack inside the classroom. They will no longer have to go outside to hang their artwork on the fence. The drying art rack will also be beneficial in keeping the art well organized and neat.

The genorous donations to my project will make a difference in that my students will find it enjoyable to paint and create artwork that will be protected while it dries on the art rack.
