The Visual Arts Program at Anne Arundel County Public Schools provides a  curriculum to challenge students to think about and respond to themselves and their world of experiences in creative and innovative ways. We recognize that children learn through different intelligences and reflection of oneself and one's own creations is an essential tool for growth.

Through sequential experiences, students are offered opportunities to develop to the fullest extent of their capabilities to demonstrate cognitive and artistic growth, and to advance according to identified expectancies at different instructional levels.

Curriculum has been developed to encourage critical and analytical thinking and to develop skills that make connections to both the student's own life and other subject areas. The visual arts curriculum encourages divergent thinking and creative exploration, which helps students make sense of our increasingly visual world.
