Visual Art POS 2017-18 webversion.docx
The Visual Art Department offers a variety of courses to our students each year. Freshmen can elect Art 1, TV 1 or Multimedia Presentation. Art 1 & Art 2 or TV 1 & TV 2 are the prerequisites for most advanced classes.
‘Art does not solve problems, but makes us aware of their existence,’ sculptor Magdalena Abakanowicz has said. Arts education, on the other hand, does solve problems. Years of research show that it is closely linked to almost everything that we as a nation say we want for our children and demand from our schools:
academic achievement,
social and emotional development,
civic engagement,
and equitable opportunity.
