RSU/MSAD #54 K-12 ART MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to provide opportunities for students to develop creativity, imagination and technical abilities in a variety of aspects of the visual arts. By participating in art experiences that are dynamic and relevant, students will develop critical thinking, visual literacy and technology skills. Students will explore interdisciplinary experiences, integrate knowledge of past and present cultures in order to foster individual self-expression, community values, and develop an increased understanding of the possibilities of art in the world around them.
MS. MARTIKKE'S MISSION STATEMENT
My mission is to help students envision how they might apply the creativity, craftsmanship, and collaboration that they practice in Art class to their lives. The Arts offer fundamentals in creating with various materials and technologies, but they also offer skills in observing, envisioning, and creating one's own experience of the world. I hope to use the discipline of Art to get students to live artistically and use artistic behaviors both within and beyond the Art classroom.
