Middle School Visual Arts Program
Our Middle School Visual Arts Program offers two strands of learning. Students can choose between a semester-long option for exploring visual arts or a mastery option that lasts for an entire year. In both options, students learn painting, collage, drawing, sculpture, and pottery in our purpose-built arts classrooms. They also have opportunities to showcase their work at various school events.
High School Visual Arts Program
Our High School Visual Arts Program continues with the same options in grades 9-10 and culminates with the IB Art program in grades 11-12. The rigorous IB Visual Arts Program focuses on developing students' experiences in visual arts and culminates in a show where students design their gallery space and curate their work from the past two year's creations. This process involves extensive reflections, and the final art show serves as their culminating assessment in the program.
