Mrs. Mary Vance

Hi, My name is Mary Vance!  I am McCurdy’s art teacher!  This is my first year teaching art at McCurdy, and my 6th year in education.  I hold a Studio Art degree from Maryville University, and I am currently working on my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Art Education.  When I am not at school, I love to watch new movies, especially sci-fi, fantasy, and dystopian.  I love to play volleyball and hang out with my fam.  I also love doing anything outdoors in nature.  I am excited to be at McCurdy and can’t wait to show off all of our Mustang’s artwork!
