Ian Cooper, Davis Herron, Carol Dicks Art stresses imagina- tion and appreciation Art was again enjoyed by many students from the four-year-olds to the ninth graders. Assisted by the experienced teaching of Miss Dicks, the Lower School launched itself into an art program which included the use of charcoal, crayons, post- er paints, clay, and, still the chief attraction of the younger body of students, finger paints. The Middle Schoolers, taught by Mr. Cooper, were given the chance to develop and display their skills in the art room. The better of their paintings were put each week in Locke Hall where they could be admired and criticized by all. ln the Upper School the students who chose art were given an equal opportunity to improve their talent under the competent teaching of Mr. Herron. Not only did they strive to paint what they thought resembled their composition, but they also received a fair amount of art apprecia- tion. Several times during the year, Mr. Herron gave carefully planned talks on the progress of art through the ages. As a whole, the art students found their course both interesting and rewarding. Mr. Cooper teaches technique.
