Hi, my name is Ms. Zapata and I teach art! I graduated from University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. Rope' em! I have been an artist for 12+ years and a teacher for 5. I am a co-sponsor for the Willowridge Art Club and a member of the Texas Art Education Association. I am passionate about building students' confidence in their artistic skills, empowering them to take ownership in their learning, and fostering critical thinking skills they can utilize in endeavors beyond the classroom. 

I look forward to having a fantastic school year together!
