Hello Neabsco Star Family! I'm Mrs. Fortune and this is my 4th year as the art teacher for Neabsco ES and 11th year in PWCS. Before moving to Prince William County, I taught for 16 years in Texas. I haven't always been an art teacher, I've been a classroom teacher, too! My degree is in Elementary Education with a minor in Art Education. My experience includes teaching first, second, third, and fifth grades as well as art. I love helping children grow as artists and make connections to their classroom, community, and world through visual arts. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my 3 daughters and husband, drawing and painting, playing the piano, exploring new places, studying history and cultures, and learning new things!
