Art
Art is taught as a program that demands effort in developing skills, creativity, and self-discipline. It is approached from a serious academic point of view. Each course is designed to have students learn about visual art as a means of creative expression and to have students become proficient with at least one medium.
For students who have an interest in a specific art career, the Art Department recommends the following clusters of courses in order to build a background for that career.
Upon completion of the course clusters, the career-driven student will have gained general knowledge of the career area. A definite decision as to whether the student wants to pursue post-high school education in art can realistically be made. Additionally, a comprehensive portfolio will have been produced which can be presented when applying for admission
