My name is Tony Thomasson and I am the Art teacher at Mt. Olivet and Drewry Mason Elementary schools for the 2019 - 2020 school year.  I taught Art in Chesterfield County in Richmond, Virginia for 17 years before moving back to Henry County.  This is my third year here.   I live in Bassett with my wife Kathy and a black, 40 lb. rescue dog named Jack.  We have two grown sons who live in Richmond.   Art Education is a valuable addition to children's overall learning experience, complimenting and enforcing the core subjects.  I look forward to seeing the students' great artwork again this year!
