Art Makes You Smart!

It is true!  I came across this NY Times article about a study on the benefits of visiting art museums. With the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts right up the road from us, I think this is a great article to share with our Dolphin parents!!  Next time you are trying to think of a great family outing, think of the VMFA and this article.



Enjoy! :)

The Icky Bug... Beware!

Hello Dolphins!  I am reporting to you from home because I have been out sick for most of this week.  I have heard through the HCPS grapevine that it is something that has been going around.  Some of my art teacher friends at AHS say they have all gotten it recently as well... so BEWARE!!

I wanted to post here because some of you have students who brought home a notice about their artwork being on display at LuLu Creamery and that it would be up by today.  It was my intention to put them all up after school today but being ill has thrown a wrench into those plans.  So here is the update... these students will have their artwork up by Tuesday November 19th as I plan to go put them up after school on Monday.  I hope this does not interrupt any of your plans to go see the work on display.  Please make sure you go to see the new display even if you do not have a child whose artwork is there.  I love being able to show off the talent at CSES not only in our school hallways but also out within the community for all to see.

Thank you for your understanding and may you all have a wonderful, safe, and HEALTHY weekend!
