Thank you for coming and viewing Howard Ellis's wonderful student artworks. I am Richelle Bower or Mrs. B as some of my students call me. I have been a part of the Howard Ellis team for the last two years. I have taught Art Education for the past three years and am excited to begin working on my masters degree. I had thought that last year was wonderful but, I had no idea what was in store for me this year! The students are even more engaged in Art and Art history. Students are thrilled to see new concepts and meet new artists. This year students will be working in units. These will include classic art and contemporary artists along with how their ideas and concepts go along with our student's lives. This helps my students to see how the Arts are a part of their everyday.
