Axe ’Em, Jacks!
Junior Jacks' schedules include a rotation of "specials" — subjects offered outside their normal classroom with specialist teachers.
During their time at the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Charter School, students learn the principles and elements of art and design using a variety of mediums. They explore painting, drawing, collage and pottery, with projects often consisting of college-level ideas adapted for elementary-aged students.
Specific projects are displayed in the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Charter School hallways, both to showcase artists' work to their peers and to get younger students excited for new art explorations as they get older.
Mr. Russ Havard
I earned my master's degree in art in 1997 from Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ and spent a number of years as a professional artist. I began teaching elementary and college students in 2010 and have really enjoyed the artistic adventures of children and adults. I joined the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Charter School in 2020 and have enjoyed seeing and sharing the art students create.
