Welcome Ms. Taylor, our new Art Teacher: We were so grateful to have an amazing guest teacher as Mrs. Byrd! Shes
done a wonderful job in our art room with all of our students and the student projects have been incredible. Mrs. Byrd
has three more days with us to assist in the transition of our full-time Art Teacher.
We are pleased to finally announce that we have hired an Art Teacher, Ms. Rebecca Taylor! She comes with a lot of
experience and enthusiasm for the fine arts, was a former Elementary Art Teacher in Maryland and worked here in
CCSD as an Art Teacher who was split between 4 different elementary schools! Yikes! We are very fortunate to get our
Specialists all to ourselves and we dont have to share! Ms. Taylor is very passionate about elementary art and believes
in integrating art into all subject areas!
