Meet the Teachers  at Corinth Holders High School (Wendell, North Carolina)

Abby Boykin I love teaching art and I am so blessed to be teaching art to high school students at CHHS. It has always been my passion! I also love seeing how their creative passion drives them to want to pursue an art related career! I hope they see my enthusiasm everyday and are inspired by that. This love for art started in my hometown of Middlesex, NC. From a young age I began spending a countless number of hours using my mom’s needle to sew uncanny attire for my dolls. I used scissors to redo their hair, sculpti ... read moreng out new identities that matched their new found personalities. It all started from here... I graduated as a North Carolina Teaching Fellow from Meredith College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art Education. During my time there I found out that my favorite area to work in was fibers and sculpture. However, lately my mediums have been changing and I enjoy working with oil pastel, chalk pastel and acrylic skin, digital photography. I believe real artwork is based on the student's own experience, memory, observation and/or imagination. I also believe that a firm foundation in art provides a tool for self-discovery for students. It is here in the arts that students learn about multiple ways to solve problems through collaboration and self-exploration. They utilize multiple mediums to create products that are representational and unique.They also learn the importance of having open-ended outcomes and multiple solutions. Art serves as a tool for communication in which students learn about each other’s culture, which fosters unique global perspectives! I believe without a strong art program student's can't reach their full artistic potential. Send compliment
