In case you missed the spotlight on the FANTASTIC Ms. Patton, our IB Visual Arts teacher, here you go!
We are so fortunate to have Ms. Patton at the helm of IB Visual Arts. She embodies the IB spirit and has a love for art and students that extends beyond the classroom.
You are deserving of the spotlight today and every day!
Suffolk Public Schools Celebrates National Arts in Education Week!
"Art education is important to me because all humans innately desire to express themselves creatively. It empowers students to find their unique voices and provides opportunities to share themselves with the world in ways they might not have otherwise. Visual Art education also offers students a different perspective on some of their core content. Art encompasses concepts from all subject areas--from a visual history of the world to practical, beautiful applications of science and math. There's truly something for everyone in Art because it combines academics with creativity and emotional growth."
