WELCOME


Welcome to a new school year at Groveport Elementary School.  I would like to introduce myself.  My name is DanaĆ© Sperk and I will be your child’s art teacher.  I grew up in Reynoldsburg where I was a gymnast and cheerleader.  I am the youngest child, with two older brothers.   I graduated from The Ohio State University with a bachelor in art education.  My husband and I are huge buckeye fans.  We love watching football in the fall.  In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, playing volleyball, and making artwork.  I am also the new freshman cheerleading coach for the football season.
I believe the arts are a vital component to a successful education.  It is important to be able to express yourself through different avenues and to reflect upon the art that surrounds us daily.  I am looking forward to all of the awesome projects in store for child.  We will be viewing, discussing and creating artwork inspired by different cultures, artists and materials.  We will be using the elements of art to help us create fabulous artworks.  
 
There are several ways to help support the art program at our school.  We can always use the following supplies if you would like to donate them: erasers, pencils, markers, watercolor paint, glue sticks, black sharpie markers, paper towels, baby wipes, tissues and aluminum foil.  Any donation is greatly appreciated!
I am excited to be a part of the Groveport Community.  I intend to make learning a positive experience for your child.  Thank you so much for all your help. Let’s have a great year together.
