Philosophy for teaching Art

 We believe that all students can become proficient in art making and
responding to art. We think that the best way to encourage young students to
engage with art is through creating art, and talking about art. We  also expect our students to develop
an understanding of the elements and principles of art; Line, shape, color,
form, texture, value and space.
