Overview of the Art Program
The goal of the art program in the Parsippany-Troy Hills public Schools is to provide students with sequential instruction that emphasizes the study of the structure and meaning of artworks, and the skills for both practicing art and making informed judgments about it. The outcomes of the program involve the learner in aesthetics, art history, multiculturalism, art production, and art criticism. The outcomes that reflect these components are cumulative, repeating and building in complexities as the student progresses.
Every student has a right to an education that develops visual perception, aesthetic inquiry,problem solving skills, appreciation of our aesthetic heritage and the understanding of relationships between bodies of knowledge. It is our purpose to communicate to the student the significance of the visual arts as a most important form of communication.
