State Standards
In line with the National and State Standards, it is our goal at CIS to further student artistic literacy. Students will explore various art media and techniques, respond and critique their work and the work of others, and express their thoughts ideas and ideals artistically. They will become skilled problem solvers and gain an aesthetic appreciation for the visual arts, as well, as the world around them.
