The Visual Arts program provides a firm foundation upon which students can build to ultimately achieve their personal artistic potential. By providing the opportunity for in depth study of a wide range of artistic mediums, we hope to facilitate a thorough understanding of the creative process and how it can relate to all aspect of their lives. By experiencing our sequential curriculum and activities, our students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills, build confidence and individual talents, as well as gain a lifelong love, appreciation, and understanding of the arts.

Our program offers in in depth study in Painting, Drawing, Ceramics, Sculpture, Printmaking, Photography, Computer Graphics and Animation. Advanced students can also pursue college credit in A/P Studio Art.
