Welcome to Mrs. Manning's Art page. I am excited and looking forward to another fun, creative year with the students!
China Spring Elementary is a member of Artsonia, an online students art gallery. Artsonia showcases the work of students from all around the world.
Our students love to see their work online! I believe it helps to develop their pride and self-esteem.
You can register as a parent, create fan clubs, have family members and friends who live close or far away leave comments for your student to see. It’s a great way to see what we are learning in art and to have your child’s work saved forever! In addition, you may purchase custom keepsakes with your child's artwork and 15% of all purchases is donated back to our school to purchase art supplies!
It’s free and totally safe as only your child’s first name and a number are used. Check it out with the link on this page, and remember to leave a comment for your young artist!
