Welcome to Mississippi Creative Arts School! Thank you for stopping by our website. 

In the spring of 2014, I became principal of Mississippi Creative Arts School (MCAS). As the principal of MCAS, I have gained a deeper understanding of the arts and learning.  This understanding has helped me make a strong connection between my belief that learning is constructed through the active engagement of students in the learning process to the arts integration approach where students are provided with multiple ways through the arts to organize and construct information and facts in order to gain a deeper understanding and make their learning visible.   

With a renewed effort for MCAS to reinforce a strong emphasis on the arts, a 5-year Arts at the Core plan was created to bring The Kennedy Center's arts integration approach into every classroom at MCAS. The goal is to increase student achievement and equity of instruction, while providing a true culturally responsive environment where students can academically achieve and thrive through the arts.

I am proud of the work that we do here at MCAS. It continues to be an honor to serve our students and families as principal of Mississippi Creative Arts School.
