Welcome to
Mrs. Gagne's Art Room
The art room is a positive learning environment that allows students to learn about and share their art ideas through the process of creating, responding, connecting, and presenting. The Fine Arts curriculum is designed to support Stratford's educational initiative "Portrait of a Graduate". It provides opportunities for our student artists to be Communicators, Collaborators, Life-Long Learners, Compassionate & Engaged Community Members, and Solution Driven Problem Solvers.
