Visual Arts

The visual arts program provides an opportunity for self-discovery through personal, creative expression. The primary academic expectations met within these visual art courses include active learning, perseverance, and innovation using both technology and traditional media. These courses focus on students' critical thinking skills and innovative approaches to problem solving. Students will examine cultural artwork from present day and historical contexts. An effort is made to provide a sequential experience and students should note that the College Board recommends that all students preparing to enter college should be proficient in at least one of the arts. Students considering a studio arts course should understand that "talent" is not a prerequisite; rather a willingness to think, work, and create
