Welcome to Art at Wilbur S. Pence Middle School!
First of all, I am so excited to make art with each one of you! I believe that art is essential to education because it helps us create our own language and gives us a better understanding of others. Along with being a universal language, art is a vital tool for expression. It helps us translate stories and emotions through creation. I look forward to helping my students learn how to express themselves in fun and unique ways!
