Hi! I’m Mrs. Bradshaw, and I’m so excited to be part of the Advantage Arts Academy community. I’ve been teaching for 13 years, and I still love finding new ways to make learning creative, meaningful, and memorable for my students.

One of my favorite things about teaching is bringing the arts into everyday learning. I love finding creative ways for students to show what they know - whether we’re turning math concepts into artwork, creating science projects, exploring literature, or working together on a hands-on project. I believe students learn best when they have opportunities to create, explore, and make connections to the world around them.

After 13 years in education, one of the things I value most is helping students recognize their own growth. I want my classroom to be a place where students feel safe asking questions, making mistakes, trying new things, and discovering what they’re capable of. Watching a student gain confidence and realize, “I can do this!” is one of the best parts of being a teacher.

Outside of school, I’m a mom to four children, so life at home is just as busy and entertaining as life in the classroom! I love spending time with my family, being creative, traveling, and making memories together.

I feel incredibly lucky to spend my days teaching, creating, and learning alongside kids, and I’m excited for another year of growth, creativity, and fun at Advantage Arts Academy!
