Hello, my name is Danielle Hartle, [your students will know me as Ms. Dani or Ms. Hartle] and this is my 5th year as the Art specialist at Chelsea Heights Elementary! I have a Bachelor's in Visual Arts as well as a Masters of Visual Arts Education from UMN.  When I am not at Chelsea Heights I like to create both textile and painted works. I also like to go out with my family on hikes, This summer we went to Tahquamenon as well as the Pictured Rocks Lakeshore.

        It is a privilege to be a member of the Chelsea Heights Community and I thoroughly enjoy making creative explorations with our talented students.  I believe that The Arts are essential to all people and all cultures in this 21st Century world. Because of this belief, it is important to make all of my students feel welcome and comfortable to create art. A quote that has become a large part of my teaching Philosophy is from Bob Ross 

“We Don’t Make Mistakes, Just Happy Little Accidents”

I look forward to seeing your students in class this year!
