To encourage originality and self-expression in creative art, the art curriculum becomes a center where the King Philip student is taught artistic modes and media, and is given an acquaintance with the masters and periods of art. Art students come to use the various media as a channel of expression for creative thought. King Philip is indebted to many of them for the annual Christmas window, posters, and other decorative displays which help to beautify the school. 22 4 .
