It is hard to believe school is right around the corner. Summer has flown by! I hope your child is as excited to start the school year as I am. It was great to see so many parents and students at the open house on Wednesday. I enjoyed meeting new students and talking with former students.
Please check this blog for important information about your child's art class. A weekly agenda can be found to the left of this post. Lesson plans and class information is found to the right of this post. I look forward to working with your child and can't wait to see what amazing creative artworks your child will produce over the next trimester.
