Art Teacher Directory
Please complete your slide by Dec 19. This is an important document that will help us recognize and get to know each other!
Please include a professional picture of yourself (we need faces!) as well as any customization. Illustrations/avatars (of yourself) are fine as long as we can tell it’s you.

For the time being, this list will remain alphabetical, and we will modify in the future.
Proclomation 2015
It is very confusing. It is very frustrating.
The Advocacy Committee is working with Missey and discussing all possible solutions. Please make sure your voice is heard, as soon as possible.
Faculty Art Show, February 2015
Get motivated!
We want your artwork. YES, YOU.
We are looking forward to a big turnout, as we need about 40 pieces!
Please keep in mind that these works will be viewed by all ages and need to be school appropriate.
We can accommodate 3D art as well.
Please have your work ready by to be displayed by Jan. 30, 2015.

Superintendent's Office Art Show Guidelines
Superintendent’s Office
Artwork Selection
Rules and Regulations
Drafted: Fall 2014
Artwork/Submitting Artwork:
Teachers can submit as many works as they see fit.
Number of works selected:
3 - Elementary School
3 - Middle School
3 - High School
All work will be submitted electronically to the Superintendent’s Art Show Coordinator (SAS Coordinator).
Each image must have:
media
dimensions/size
artist name
teacher name
The SAS Coordinator will mat, frame, and install all work selected, as well as maintain the show.
Framed work or work on canvas will not be framed/reframed, but will hang in existing state.
Artwork must be submitted to the SAS Coordinator prior to the following Arts Advocacy meeting dates: May, October, December, March.
The Show
Work will be displayed for 9 weeks. New works will be selected and placed in these months: September, November, January and April.
Participating Teachers and Students PLEASE NOTE: You will not be able to collect before the end of the 9 week time frame. All work selected will be hung for the full 9 weeks; therefore, work in the Superintendents Show is not available for other shows (for example: VASE, LISD District Shows).
The show can house up to, but no more than, three 3-D works.
The 3-D works must be ready for installation upon delivery to the SAS Coordinator.
Selection of Work
The selection committee is made up of 3 or more members of the Arts Advocacy Committee.
The process for selecting works will be the “sticky note method”. Each member of the committee will be given a proportional amount of sticky notes and then proceed to vote for their selection in each category (High, Middle, Elementary school).
The 3 works in each category that gather the most votes will be the works selected for the show.
