Hello! My name is Emily Frank, or Miss Frank, Frank, or Frankie to my students. I am currently one of a few TAs working at the Henderson Inclusion School. I work with lead teacher Jozeph Zaremba teaching visual arts to students in grades 6 through 12. Not only am I new to VSA, but I am also finishing my BFA in Art Education at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. I am lucky enough to have been given the opportunity to student teach for an entire year rather than a single semester, which is the "normal plan" at MassArt, and I am excited to be spending an entire year learning and growing with all our students.

I use art to help students investigate the world around them and imagine their own worlds.
When making art, students use the skills of observation, investigation, imagination, and creation. I love drawing on eclectic inspirations, ranging from cartoons, to math, to contemporary art in my lessons. Too often, we think about art as separate from their daily lives, as a teacher, I love identifying the artistic inspiration that surrounds us.
