Art is Smart!
In Mrs. Nugent’s art class, students have been learning
about different artists for Black History Month, including
Faith Ringgold, Jean-Michele Basquiat and Jacob Lawrence.
Students in grades K-6 learned the history of the artist
and about the style of art they created. The students then
created their own works of art inspired by the artist of
their choosing. This month, art curriculum will be focus on
women artists in celebration of Women’s History Month.
We have also been hard at work on our Art to Remember
project for our fundraising for the art room! Students will
be able to purchase items with their artwork on them.
Items will include water bottles, facemasks, t-shirts and
much more. Most will cost less than $15 and all proceeds
will benefit the art program at Valley Forge.

are due by March 26th and are
$15. Please contact Mrs. Nugent Thank you to Valley Forge teachers and
