Welcome Back Art Boosters!
We can't wait to start the 2020-2021 School Year!
Sign up for the WMSE Art Program Remind101!
You need to opt in to Remind 101 every year, so that you are sorted into the correct grade level for awesome art information that is tailor made for you! If you have a student in more than one grade level, simply opt in to both grade level Remind101 accounts. =)
8th grade Parents, please send a text message to 81010 with the message @wmseart8
7th grade Parents, please send a text message to 81010 with the message @wmseart7

We also have a very popular Instagram page! Links to our social media are at the bottom of this newsletter. Our Instagram is private, so you will need to request the follow.
If your Instagram handle isn't a name that I will easily recognize, or if I haven't approved you after a day or two, send me an email. If I'm doubtful, I tend to wait for an email before approving new followers. If you prefer that I not include photos of your child on our Instagram or website, please let me know.
Lathe Time!
Big thanks to Faith Owen's Dad for donating wood blanks!
Materials for the lathe are very costly! His donation helped us to keep pen costs down so that many more students could participate in our lathe program.
We make pens, pencils, and sketch pencils. We look forward to expanding our lathe options to include small containers and bowls in the future.
Wash those hands!

We would also LOVE cleaning supply donations any time you are able. The art room is a messy place! Paper towels, all purpose cleaner, sanitizer, and old hand towels are always welcome!
What about HOMEWORK?
What about supplies?
2020 Art Fee $15
This will be used to purchase supplies for our students to use throughout the school year. Supplies will include clay, papers, carving supplies, inks, paints, colored pencils, lathe supplies, glazes, etc. Our Booster account is very low this year, due to the 8th grade Formal being cancelled last year. If you are able, please contribute to our program by paying the 2020 Art Fee. There is a "pay now" button on our website to pay via PayPal or you may send in payment with your student.
The only supplies that you will need to provide are a pencil, eraser,
and one hard cover sketchbook.
I'm including links to a couple of sketchbooks below. Any of these books, or something similar, would be perfect. A medium sized hard back sketchbook is ideal. Larger than around 8x5 gets to be a little hard for the kids to keep up with. The A5 size is perfect for their computer bag.
