----------------------
I have had the tremendous opportunity to be part of a
chartered high school based on the arts in Derry, New Hampshire called Granite
State Arts Academy. I was hired in August of 2014 as the visual arts department
coordinator for the school. We are
currently in our first year of classes and building the visual arts department
has been both rewarding and challenging.
Each student who attends our school is required to major in
one of the arts provided at the school: visual arts, dance, music, or
theatre. It has been wonderful to work
in an environment where being the art teacher is considered being a major and
not an extra.
We are currently busy planning and building our curricula
for year two at GSAA and are eager and excited to provide in-depth arts
education to students in New Hampshire.
