My name is Joy Taylor. I am the Visual Arts Teacher at Hamilton Elementary.

I have worked for SLPS for 20+ years and have served at Hamilton for 12 years. I am certified in both Elementary Education (K-6) and Visual Arts Education ( 1-9)

My goals are to use the visual arts to support and be used as a learning tool to integrate all academic areas, be emotionally therapeutic , boost self-esteem, and  enhance social skills as well as, exploration of our creative selves. I want our students to have exposure to hobbies and other cultures and to see that the world is a big place and to find their place in it. This task will come through encouraging and challenging them beyond what they think they can do. It will require problem solving, risk taking, collaboration. 

 WELCOME TO ANOTHER CREATIVE  SCHOOL YEAR

LET US BEGIN OUR ARTISTIC JOURNEY TOGETHER!
