Incoming 9th grade IB - Class of 2017!

Wow, we had a great turn out last night with some great presentations from the teachers.  I know its a lot of information so if any of our incoming students are reading this, don't freak out, your teachers will be there to help you through this program :)

If you have any questions about art or any of the other subjects, you can find the teacher's contact information on the Haines City IB website.

Here's the Art presentation from last night:

Polk Schools Fine Arts Festival

This year the festival was in Munn Park in Lakeland. It was a great location that got lots of visitors. Thank you to Mr. Scheloske for coming out to see all the artwork. One of our art students, Pedro, even drove all the way over there. He was a great ambassador for Haines City. All the art teachers thought he was great :)

The really exciting news...

Art 1 - Radial Design

We tried a brand new project this year in Pre IB Art 1 and I'm so happy with how it turned out.  Check out these great radial designs.  Students created a stencil which they used to paint the radial designs.  This project is definitely a keeper, we will do this one again next year.

Pre IB Art 1 - Line, Shape, Pattern

Art 1 students have completed their first assignment of the year.  Students used their first name as the main part of a composition including lines and shapes.  They used repetition to unify their designs while using many different types of lines and shapes to add variety.

We finished this assignment with a post-it-note class critique.  Students responded to prompts by leaving comments for others by their artwork.

Amazing Scores!

Last Friday our seniors from last year got their IB scores back. This year every IB art senior passed art! I'm excited because this is the first year I have had a 100% pass rate :)

The students put in two years of hard work and they deserve these scores. I am so proud of them.
