My Students

I teach kindergarten - 6th grade Art at a Title I school in south central Phoenix, AZ.

100% of students receive free breakfast and lunch.

This is my second year teaching at RMR. Last year I started the art program from the ground up. We have been flourishing ever since!

As we work our way into the second semester of school, our art supplies are running low. My students and I absolutely love getting creative!

We share a passion for painting and we’re always getting crafty.

By sharing my passion and education in the arts, my students are engaging and creating epic pieces of art.

My Project

If we are able to get these materials my students will be able to continue their creative adventure through the arts. My students absolutely love painting, not only do they enjoy the application of paint to a surface but they love creating new colors by mixing and blending. Often times the kiddos will compare mixing paint, to science. They say, “It’s like we’re artistic scientists doing a color experiment!”.

This excitement in the classroom needs to continue.

My students and I just need a little help with obtaining more materials.

If we are able to get the materials my students and I will be able to further explore the formal Elements of Art and Principles of Design.

Grades 3-5
Nearly all students from low‑income households
