Welcome to the Art Room 

at Central Middle School

The primary goal of this program is to prepare students to be visual thinkers and creative problem solvers in their life as students and well rounded humans. Art classes provide multi sensory learning experiences for students interested in art as a creative outlet. Our primary goal is to prepare students to be visual thinkers and creative problem solvers in their future chosen fields.   Students will study and create art inspired by different movements, the artists that help create these movements and their work.  Art history, art appreciation, problem solving and critical thinking are integrated throughout this course, allowing students to develop increasingly sophisticated creative strategies, skills and habits of mind to evoke emotional expression and the ability to see the world in a different way.
