Hello Everyone!

I have taught for 34 years and I truly love teaching art and working with kids. My husband and I moved to Fairmont 34 years ago. We have two boys Johnny, and Bailey. My favorite things are spending time with my family, friends, skiing, boating, painting and coming up with new things to create. I will retire in June but plan to continue to teach and have classes in my studio at home for both adults and children. I will really miss my students at school but look forward to beginning a new chapter in my life. It has been a blessing to do what I love for so long. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to work with your awesome children!

Keep creating, Mrs. Koppen

Welcome to Distance Learning!

Art is a place for children to learn to trust their ideas, themselves, and to explore what is possible.

*Wednesdays we will have an art activity, click on Art Lesson below the calendar and explore.

Everything you need will be there. Please email me if you have any concerns.
