Hope you enjoyed your week off!! Art Room Updates.

I hope you are all feeling rested and relaxed.  I am still waiting to hear if there will be any changes to the rotation schedule (for the beginning of 2nd semester, and the end of 2nd 9 week rotation).  If there are no changes, students will be able to pick up their artwork (and also personal art supplies and sketchbooks) from the art room next week before or after school or before or after their lunch. I am also available to students after school or during lunches if they would like to finish any incomplete projects.  Please e-mail, call, or send a note with your student about dates/times to set up any after school artwork time. Seventh grade students clay grotesques/fantasy animals will be ready for pick up the week of 2/3/2014.  Those projects will need to be loaded into the kiln (clay oven), fired (cooked to 1800+ degrees F), cooled down the next day, then unloaded.  As you can imagine, it is a lengthy process.  Second 9 week rotation seventh graders--the Square 1 order deadline has been extended once more because of the weather to 1/27/2014.  I must mail out paper order forms on 1/27/2014 which is the teacher work day.  If you still would like to make an order online or over the phone, you may.  If you would like to drop an order by the school before 2pm or so 1/27/2014 that will be the last chance for paper orders.
