Who is Ms. Knox

Hello All, 
My name is Ms. Christa Knox and I am so excited about this school year. First a little about me. I was born and raised in Golden, CO (go Demons!) and moved to the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area when I was 19. I attended the Art Academy of Cincinnati, graduating with a BFA in Painting/Art History with a minor in Political Science (Totalitarianism/Apocalyptic Imagination). When my daughter started school I went to the University of Cincinnati for my MA in Art History (Japanese/Mayan) and then Thomas More College for my MAT. 
We moved to Winslow in July of 2013.
 
This is going to be an amazing year and I cannot wait to get to know all of you.

Through the year we go through several supplies that cannot be ordered through the school. If you are able to donate any of the below to the classroom, we would be grateful.  Thank you
 
-broken jewelry, beads, costume jewelery/feathers, tinsel, ribbons, silk flowers, random craft supplies, shells, anything sparkly. 
-scrubbing sponges
-tissue (for all those running noses)
-standard #2 pencils
