The students who take art explore the various phases of creative art and its heritage. They also specialize in one or more areas of creative interest. Art helps to develop creativity, judgement, design sensitivity, and the ability to think independently. Their classes usually start off with planning, discussions, evaluations or criticisms. Then they usually see films, slides, and reproductions in order to do a better job. The art classes often have class assignments,such as art news topics, reports as assigned, textbook assignments, and trips to the art galleries. During the school year art students are always drawing, painting, making various kinds of sculpture, crafts, lettering, contemporary models, while others participate in other art areas such as architecture and industrial designs. 67
