Robin  Norgren, M.A.Th, is a Montessori teacher living in Apache Junction,  Arizona.  She earned her Undergraduate degree in Management from Arizona  State University and her Masters Degree in Theology from Fuller  Theological  Seminary.  She has completed her AMS Montessori Primary  Certification  and is in the process of completing her AMI Montessori  Primary  Certification.  Her recent accolades include helping to develop  a  Montessori based preschool that serves as a integration program for  students with Autism.  She also taught Montessori Kindergarten and  developed a curriculum that combined Montessori practices with Common  Core Standards.  In 2020, she created a K-6th Common Core Aligned Art program for a Mesa Charter School and had the privilege of teaching at the school.
 
Josey's  Art School was started as a passion project because Robin saw that art  education  was diminishing in the elementary school curriculum.  She has  created  and developed over 300 art lessons and has taught in classrooms,   community centers and after school programs all over Arizona and   Virginia.
