Visual Arts - Advanced Placement

The Advanced Placement Program in the Art History is designed to provide the same benefits to secondary students as are provided by an introductory college course: an understanding and enjoyment of architecture, sculpture, painting, and other art forms within a historical and cultural context. In this course students learn to look at works of art with intelligence and sensitivity, examining the major forms of artistic expression of the past and of distant cultures as well as those of our own time and environment, in preparation for the Advanced placement test.

The Advanced Placement studio courses are intended for the highly motivated students committed to serious study in art. To enroll, students must have completed Art 1 and 2. The AP 2D Design Portfolio addresses a broad range of media, skills, and techniques and is comprised of two sections: Sustained Investigation (15 digital images) and Selected Works (5 digital images of 5 original artworks). The digital images are submitted for AP Examination review.
