As curators of the creative mind, we, as art teachers at Castle View High School, facilitate the process of creativity, problem solving, and open-mindedness to each individual learner. We strive for our students be active creators of visual culture and express themselves in original and healthy ways. We do this by building relationships, creating a safe place to be risk-takers, exploring their interests and passions, and providing them with projects that allow for student choice and individualization.
