Results for elementary VASE, also known as TEAM (Texas Elementary Art Meet) are in!

This year, there were over 530 entries for our region. We entered 40 elementary students. Here are our results...

32 students scored perfect scores and the other 8 were very close....just a couple points away from perfect score!

Out of the five hundred thirty something kids, only 30 were chosen for the title of "Top of Team" and one of them is FWAFA 4th grader, Khara Lay!

Congratulations to all!

Just a reminder to contact our nurse, Kay Armstrong, if you are Covid positive. Our Covid procedures are still in place and can be accessed on our website. Nurse Kay's email is kay.armstrong@fwafa.org

The Annual Campaign is 1 of just 2 fundraisers that TCA+A holds each year. Federal funding keeps the lights on at our charter schools, but it is TCA+A dollars that ensure a challenging and robust educational experience for all students. The Annual Campaign supports everything from classroom supplies, technology upgrades, costumes for our vast performances, transportation needs, and evidence-based curriculums so that we can provide one-of-a-kind instruction to all students.
