TCS Art Club Returns to Inspire Young Creators
By Samantha DePriest
Ms. Reke Gatlin, TCS Lower School and Upper Elementary School Art Teacher
Trinity Christian School Art Club is back! Kicking off this September and led by Art teacher Ms. Reke Gatlin, students in grades first through fifth grades will enjoy fun, hands-on art projects, explore new materials and techniques, express their creativity, and build friendships in a welcoming, encouraging environment. All experience levels are welcome.
Ms. Reke Gatlin shared, “I am excited to join Trinity Christian School as the new Art Teacher for 1st-8th grades! I have been part of the Trinity family for over 10 years, and I am grateful for the opportunity to now serve the school community in this role. I studied Fashion Merchandising and Marketing at Academy of Art University, where I developed a strong foundation in art, design, and creative expression. Art has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I am passionate about helping students discover their own creativity, develop their artistic skills, and recognize the unique gifts God has given them.
I look forward to creating an encouraging and inspiring classroom environment where students can explore the visual arts while growing in confidence and creativity. I am excited to continue growing as part of the Trinity community and to share my love of art with my students!”
