VAVPA Bulldog Bites: August 2010
http://vapabulldogbites.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. New Year, New Faces. Welcome to the new school year! My name is Laura Lavelle, a first grade teacher here at VAVPA, and I will be the blog master this year. As a new Bulldog, I spent my first week in awe of the amazing things happening around the school. I found a beautiful campus, energetic teachers who are passionate about their craft, and students excited about coming back for another exceptional year of learning. What are the exciting things happening on (and off) campus?

VAVPA Bulldog Bites: December 2009
http://vapabulldogbites.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 5, 2009. Education, Arts and Politics. I think the arts are perhaps singularly the most neglected part of our educational structure today. And there are some of us who really do believe that an education in the arts is not expendable. It is not extraneous. It's not extracurricular. It is essential. And without it, a student is not getting a full, complete, and total education.". Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee. First Lady Michelle Obama. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Art of Education.
