Visual & Performing Arts
High School
BSD High School Visual students learn how to develop a visual voice to speak about their lives. Experiences and lessons help them learn how art can improve their ability to communicate ideas and feelings about their world. Teachers combine examples from art history and culture with projects that help students express themselves visually. The pathway offers a wide variety of courses from drawing, painting, and sculpture to computer art and photography. In art classes, students make connections between the visual arts and other subject areas. They explore the arts’ place in the working world. Courses prepare students for an art related career, and teachers support their students in their application to art programs in college and trade school.
