Year-Long Art
Application Process
Application Process
Advanced Art is a year-long art class for 8th graders who have completed art 1 in 7th grade. Projects increase in difficulty level + a student's ability to create work from original concepts. Students are also expected to compete in an art competition that takes place on a Saturday in Plano in the spring. Students are also rewarded with an art tour field trip.
PORTFOLIO WORK | You will need to create 1-2 NEW artworks and you may also show some previously made artworks from home or a class.
PORTFOLIO SUBMISSION | Create a google slide. Insert images of your new and previous artwork plus any text to explain the artwork and dates of completion. Upload it to the google form below.
EXAMPLE | View Mrs. Wright's example slideshow below.
Use this google form to discuss your experience, intentions, personal style, and name a teacher reference. You will also attach your slide show portfolio in the form.
Once the application window closes, the top 20 artists, based on skill & motivation, will be notified by email of their admittance. The remainder will be emailed an apology letter and remain in semester-long art 2. The list of 20 will be sent to the school counselors to add the year-long advanced art class to their schedule.
