Student Fees: The California Constitution mandates that public education be provided to students free of charge, unless a charge is specifically authorized by law for a particular program or activity.  This constitutional right of free access encompasses all educational activities, whether curricular or extracurricular, and regardless of whether credit is awarded for the educational activity.  The right of free access also prohibits mandated purchases of materials, supplies, equipment or uniforms associated with the activity, as well as the payment of security deposits for access, participation, materials or equipment.  A process that allows for a waiver process for an otherwise mandatory fee, charge or deposit does not render it constitutionally permissible.

Comic Art/ Cartooning Summer School Class!

Hi!  Back for the fifth year, I will be teaching a class that focuses on creating comics and cartoon characters!  Using the techniques that I teach in this class, I created the Shelby and the Blooms art/comic series!  You will learn how to tell fascinating stories through comics, create dynamic and interesting original characters, and improve your drawing skills.  Follow the link to sign up:  http://suzanne.wvusd.k12.ca.us/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=205852&type=d 

Advanced Art's Field Day shirt!  I used the famous "Baby Panda Sneeze" YouTube video, then Photoshoped my head(s) on both pandas. 

Now on Instagram and Facebook!
