AP Art + Design (11th-12th Grades)

The Advanced Placement Art & Design program is for eligible juniors and seniors who are highly motivated and committed to creating college-level work in one of three areas of focus: 2D Art & Design, 3D Art & Design, or Drawing.

This course requires students to create and submit a portfolio of 2D art, 3D art, or drawings according to specific AP guidelines and sophisticated written documentation of the inquiry-based exploration process. Classwork and homework are almost entirely student-driven as students work independently on a theme of their choice with regular faculty coaching and self, peer, and teacher assessments. Work for this course begins in the summer so that students have time to create and submit a completed portfolio to the College Board for an AP evaluation and score. This course may be repeated for credit. This course will count towards the fine arts requirement for graduation.

(Prerequisite: Intro to Art, Drawing, Painting, plus Honors Studio Art and/or departmental approval)

US 101 - Rescheduled Sep 5th
8/27/2025

We have an important update regarding our upcoming US 101 – Upper School & Beyond event. Originally planned for this Friday, the day before the long weekend, we’ve received feedback that many of you may be traveling and unable to attend.

In an effort to respect your time and give all of our families the opportunity to participate, we are rescheduling US 101 to take place as part of our Upper School Open House on Friday, September 5. Rather than holding two separate events on different dates, we have decided that integrating Upper School 101 with our Open House will allow us to be mindful of your time while still providing the most comprehensive picture of the Upper School journey. This will allow you to hear directly from our high school students and recent graduates, ask questions, and gain valuable insight into the Upper School experience and beyond.

We will be sending additional details soon regarding the Open House schedule and how US 101 will be included in the itinerary. For now, we encourage you to mark 8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 5 on your calendar. If you already plan to attend, you can RSVP at this link, and additional details will follow in another email. We look forward to seeing you there!
