Inside the Program

Returning adult student uses ceramics to craft her future career

Art education students have the opportunity to pursue what they love and share it with others.

Renee Fritts is studying art education as a returning adult student. She loved art as a child, but didn't have any art classes available in elementary or middle school.

After graduation, she hopes to get a job teaching high school students. Fritts has already interned at Derby High School and enjoys teaching high school students because the kids she teaches want to be there and are interested in the subject.
