Elementary Art Teacher at New Buffalo Area Schools

As an elementary art teacher, I am responsible for planning and facilitating engaging art projects for  Â鶹´«Ã½s in pre-K through fifth grade. I am also responsible for maintaining the physical and emotional  health and safety of my Â鶹´«Ã½s. 

What is the most rewarding and the most challenging part of your job?

The most rewarding part of my job as an elementary art teacher is that I am able to work with Â鶹´«Ã½s every year throughout their elementary career. The most challenging part of my job is that there are a lot of names to learn!

Which of your skills had the biggest impact on your success?

I believe the skills that had the biggest impact on my success are the simplest ones. Being early, having a positive attitude, being prepared, and doing extra.

What advice do you have for others pursuing a career similar to yours?

Students that are pursuing a career in education should take every opportunity to soak up knowledge. Every teacher observed, every conference attended, every project completed has something to teach you.
