About Ms. Gray

HELLO ACS FAMILIES!

I'm Ms. Gray one of the art teachers here at Alton Central School. I have a great passion for the Visual Arts, with an undergraduate degree from The Art Institute of Boston and a Master's Degree in Art Education from Plymouth State University.

This is my 11th year of teaching art and my fourth year here at ACS. In the past couple of years, I enjoyed getting to know the Alton community and all the students in the school. This year, I look forward to creating new and exciting art projects and continue to build wonderful connections with all of Alton's fantastic kids!

When i'm not at school, I'm either spending quality time with my greatest creations, my 2 sons or working on art projects myself! I love drawing whimsical characters, painting in bright colors and making people smile through my art yet it's being an art teacher that has brought me the most success as an artist.

Here are the 3 essential things I've discovered along the way:

1. everyone can create.

2. Art is work, not magic, but it can be magical.

3.Everyone needs art- some just don't really know what it is yet, and that's why we need ART in our schools!
