My Students

My kids are very excited because we have a brand new art program. Many of my students have never had the opportunity to paint or use other wet media before.

I have a bunch of really amazing and deserving students.

They are in seventh and ninth grades and are excited about experimenting with different media and learning new things. My kids know that they can't paint until we have drying racks to put their works on.

My Project

I have requested two drying racks and a paper storage rack. By having drying racks in our room, my students will have the chance to try out wet media such as printmaking and watercolors, and have a safe place for their creations to dry. With a storage rack, we'll have a place to put the different types of paper we need, and to keep them flat.

I'm excited about assembling an art program where there has never been one before, and giving our children the ability to learn about art.

All students deserve to have the chance to learn.
