My Students

Remember the excitement of using brand new pastels in art class?

We are a public charter school located in North West Washington, DC.

I am the art teacher who for grades K-5. I currently teach over 400 students. They are creative and love being able to artistically express themselves. They love to create art projects related to what they are studying.

My Project

We need basic oil pastels to start the school year. These pastels would be used for a variety of projects throughout the year. Pastels are one of their favorite mediums to use in the art classroom! They appreciate the rich colors and blending them to make new colors.

The donations would be greatly appreciate by the teacher, the students, and their families.

The tools needed for artistic expression will allow the students to exercise their creativity in an unlimited manner.
