Hello, my name is Jose Baldizon, and it is my honor to be your Art teacher.  During my college years, I attended UIW and then UTSA.  I was exposed to many fine arts learning opprotunities including Drawing, Painting, Graphic Design, Interior Design, and Architecture. To be teaching art is a dream come true because of my love of all forms of art (namely videogames and comics) since I was very young.  I believe art is what makes this world beautiful and interesting... it is what relaxes me in times of stress.  It is my hope that I can bring the same love/apprectiation for all things creative to the students I get to work with in my classroom.  This will be my eighth year as a Harris Hawk.  Prior to teaching in middle school, I taught all subjects in third and fifth grade within NEISD.  Please do not hesitate to contact me via email with any questions, comments, or concerns should they arise and I will respond as promptly as possible.  Thank you for your time and I hope this 2023-2024 school year will be a year of growth for both the students and myself.
