Message from the Art Teacher:
Dear Bridgewater Artists and Supporters!
Conferences start soon! Stop by and see the incredible work of our young artists in the halls and media center! Also, please donate any wipes or tissues you might be able to. We are running low in the Art Room!
If you would like to check out the art room or schedule a conference with Ms. Woodstrup please let me know by emailing me at kwoodstrup@northfieldschools.org. I will be available on Thursday January 25th and Tuesday January 30th from 3:35-7:35pm. Please include your artist's name in your message so I might be able to include work samples in our conference.
Much appreciated,
Ms. Woodstrup
