The "earth" without "art" is just "eh."- Ned Roram

2015-16 has been a FABULOUS year! We should all be very proud of the creative risks we took and the amazing art we accomplished TOGETHER! Thanks to all of our students and families for the love and support you provided us this year!

Though there is much to celebrate, it is also a bitterweet time getting ready to promote the 8th grade class. We are excited for your next journey but hope you don't go too far so come back and VISIT! Another transition taking place is Mrs. Novello will be returning to teach Expressions full-time once again next year as Mrs. Shane is moving over to STAR Academy full-time to teach Art k-5. We will miss Mrs. Shane's smiling face, warm encouragement and dedicated partnership! 

Just for Grade 7

We are in the middle of our Scratch Art Unit and will begin preparations for our Scratch Art Portrait Final this week! The Black and White Posterized Portraits are always a favorite and will welcome you back as 8th Grade Students!
