THE "ART"ICLE

Welcome to Ms. Galvan from UT, who will be working with Ms. Leatherwood’s classes through the end of February. Ms. Galvan grew up outside of Corpus Christi and is really excited to begin her student teaching journey with us.

We are in full art show mode starting this month and by the end of the month everyone will have started their Self Portrait for the show.
