Katherine Gallegos Elementary offers all students art instruction at least one time per week. The objective is to enable each child to become more perceptively aware through the introduction to and study of the particular disciplines of art: its concepts, techniques, processes, history, and the building of the skills to accommodate these. Some are blended with a pragmatic application; the correlation of art with other disciplines, such as social studies, language arts, and mathematics. All this work is directed towards assisting each child to use art experiences as a base for constructive thinking for making visual critical judgments.
