My Students

My students are ready to start using their art materials and start creating beautiful artwork! Students range from TK-4th and share the same love of art as I do! The passion I have to teach these kids is through the roof and I want them to flourish to no limits!

Many of our students come from low-income backgrounds and live in a community where arts funding is extremely limited.

We are a Title I school limiting art supplies and resources to amplify their desire to learn and create.

My Project

This project I created will help to fund my classroom where art supplies are running out. Students will be able to get back into creating in the classroom with their classmates.

With this project, I can continue using visual arts instruction in the classroom to support my students and their critical thinking skills.

Using visual arts has many benefits for students including developing their social-emotional skills and problem-solving skills. Art is definitely a favorite among students and I can not wait to have new supplies to help students achieve more!
