Kindergarten
In kindergarten through third grade, the fundamental visual “alphabet” is woven into a vocabulary from which greater clarity of visual communication evolves. Through the integration of art history, the categories of self-portraiture, still life, landscape and abstractions are developed as a platform on which to construct a larger, more refined internal and external visual vocabulary.

Fourth Grade
The fourth grade program begins to emphasize a larger and stronger application of the visual vocabulary necessary for higher-order creative thinking. By adding the elements of critique, the concept of transitions, objective and subjective perceptions, and learning through internal and external observations, students demonstrate their deeper understanding of art through the creation of formal and informal pieces.
Fifth Grade
In fifth and sixth grades, the language of art becomes increasingly complex with an introduction to spatial relationships, as well as new and different combinations of fundamental art elements and art principles.
Sixth Grade
In fifth and sixth grades, the language of art becomes increasingly complex with an introduction to spatial relationships, as well as new and different combinations of fundamental art elements and art principles.
Seventh Grade
By seventh and eighth grades, students who choose to take the art portfolio elective have established a solid visual foundation from which they observe and describe their internal and external perceptions.
Eighth Grade
By seventh and eighth grades, students who choose to take the art portfolio elective have established a solid visual foundation from which they observe and describe their internal and external perceptions. The art elective helps committed artists develop a portfolio, which is a necessary component of the application process to an arts magnet high school.
