TRIGGER WARNING- In this episode some very traumatic experiences are recounted and spoken about at length.
On Saturday, August 21st the mid-south had one of the most devastating flooding events in recorded history. Bonnie Bentley art teacher at Waverly Central High School lost most of the supplies in her classroom in the flood and is grieving 20 members of her tight nit community.
In this episode, Bonnie discusses how the flood has impacted her community, how she's making it through, why she's going back even after 29 years in the art classroom, and supplies she might need (she actually doesn't even know fully what has and hasn't made it from her classroom) when her students go back sometime in the next month or so.
The TN Art Education Association will be collecting supplies for all three Art Classrooms at the Fall Conference. The Educators' Cooperative will be accepting general classroom supplies. Contact mmitchell@mauryk12.org with questions
