My Students

My students are creative individuals who are interested in impacting their world for the better. They are exceptional human beings who are concerned with their surroundings. For many of my students this is the first time they have had an art class since elementary school. They display an immense desire to learn about art in all its forms.

Epic North High School is an environment that focuses on enriching the social emotional growth as well as the academic development of youth.

Students are a part of the everyday curriculum planning and preparation for classes. I currently have two twelfth grade teacher assistance that work to help create unit plans and display work. This allows students to have a voice in their education.

My Project

The students help to create and form the arts curriculum. They have shown an passion for using recycled and sculpture and have chosen to create a sculpture out of recycled cardboard that depicts a symbolic self-portrait. This project will use 300 fasteners, 11 hot glue guns, hot glue sticks, 36 X-acto knives, 1 pack of blades and 10 cutting mats and will teach students how to safely use materials and bring emotional and social awareness to themselves.

This is the first year this school has had an art program.

As a new art program we are in need of many supplies. These materials will help my current and future students. They will be used for a variety of sculpture projects that include cutting and gluing.
