My Students

My students are imaginative and creative. They work hard and take pride in their education. Their families work hard to provide what they need to succeed and get the most out of their time at school. My students always deserve the best out of their educational experience.

As their teacher, my goal is to help support students in reaching their dreams and goals.

I strive to provide lessons, activities, and the environment to help them grow to their greatest potential.

My Project

My students love art. They love it even more when we do ANYTHING involving watercolor painting! We don't have an art teacher in our district, so I do an art project with my students every Friday. Watercolor projects are a big hit with them, but materials get used up quickly.

We need LAquarelle watercolor paper and Prang metallic watercolor paint sets to make our masterpieces.

I love seeing the excitement in my students' eyes when I put out the watercolor paint sets for art. Replenishing our supplies for the second half of the year will ensure that we can continue making watercolor art. Thank you for considering my project!
