	Re: DO YOU HAVE A PORTFOLIO? Posted by artteacher101 on 4/01/08 does anyone even care about an artists portfolio? i mean, there seems to be an indifference on the part of public schools to the artworld. you're measured for jobs based on your teachiing ability rather than your artistic skills. these skills may be neat to look at, but i suspect most principles dont really care when theyre hiring you, because theres so many more immediate factors for them to consider in filling a post. i would imagine in more competitive situations a portfolio of your own artwork would matter more. are these accurate assumptions?
