About Mrs. Woods

Welcome to my Art webpage. This year I teach all grade levels Kindergarten - 8th grade.

I LOVE ART! What I love most about art is to be able to open kids eyes and mind to the visual world around them, it's a passion of mine that drives my teaching everyday. I'm also a big fan of traveling the country and the world whenever I have the opportunity. In college I was very fortunate to be able to spend a semester at sea, where I took a variety of courses while at sea en-route to 17 different ports around the world. It's strange to say that I have truly circumnavigated the globe.

Through my middle and high school years I was an avid figure skater. I skated for two synchronized figure skating teams known as The Ice Liners and The Colonials. We worked hard and skated our way into national and world competitions, making our way to Milan, Italy for the Synchronized world championship. I suppose this was how I got bit by the travel bug, my love for art and culture.

When I was in college my passion switched from skating to skiing and rock climbing. I gained a love for these two sports which brought me to the Outing Club at Plymouth State University where I became the clubs vice-president. My practice of these two sports continues to this day.

I love to hang out in my garden and spend quality time with my husband, our 3 year old, our dog Jackson and the rest of my family and friends.
