My Project

My students love art! The process and experience is more important than the actual product, and they are always so proud and excited to share their work. With new supplies like markers, chalk, and water color, students can create and express themselves while connecting to their learning and experiences.

Art is important for a student's development, fostering creativity, allowing children to express themselves and explore their imagination freely.

Unfortunately, art education is often pushed aside to focus more on math and reading. The arts teach children valuable learning skills that can be used in life. Thank you for helping me to bring art to my students!
