My students know I love them. I shouldn’t have to chose between them and my own family! There are so many things I’ll do for my school, losing my family is not one of them... praying MD and MCPS get this right!

@KishaLogan @MVMS_MCPS @DrIbram This book is eye opening and important

The @MVMS_MCPS Core Team had an invigorating book talk today on @DrIbram How to be an Antiracist. I can’t wait to continue the conversation and bring it to the @MVMS_MCPS staff! #BlackLivesMattter #Committed #BeTheChange

Finished monochromatic self portraits by 8th graders. Finally got around to posting these. I sure am missing these faces. ❤️

The art hallway mural project is looking awesome!!!

Monochromatic self portraits making progress! This is NOT an easy project but 8th grade is showing perseverance. I am so proud of them for not giving up and working so hard. @MVMS_MCPS @MCPSArts

Monochromatic self portrait paintings by 8th grade are really starting to take off! @MVMS_MCPS

Thank you to our art club for setting up a mini art gallery of MVMS student artwork for #mvmsparentnight2020 You guys are the best!

Amazing still life drawings from Studio 3 art. Can’t wait to post more of these as the kids finish them up. Serious talent.

Cardboard Self Portraits happening for studio 1 6th graders! How cute is this one?! @MVMS_MCPS

Feeling super grateful to be able to work with such talented students. @MVMS_MCPS #mvpride #bestjobintheworld #middleschoolart

Art Club in full effect!! Here we have art club members brain storming ideas for a mural in the art hallway. @MVMS_MCPS

This is what it’s all about. Here we have one of our fabulous 6th grade art students helping one of our students from Mr. Mahoney’s autism class. This is a very heartwarming friendship. #autismacceptance #AutismAwareness ❤️@RoyLiburd
