ART PROGRAM PLANNING 2019-2020

Requirements for a Sequence in Art: (A sequence may be needed as part of the requirements for an Advanced Regents Diploma.)

Studio in Art plus 4 other Art courses are required for a 5-credit sequence in Art. For a 5-unit Advanced Regents sequence, students must submit a digital portfolio (a minimum of 12 works) from a four-year period. These images are taken during the second half of the senior year and are kept on file by the school. The student is responsible for working with an art teacher to create the digital portfolio file of their artwork.

Advanced Regents Diploma/Art Major Requirements:
A five unit sequence in art will satisfy the requirements for an Advanced Regents diploma while also completing the necessary requirements to be considered an “Art Major.” Students will participate in the Senior Arts Gala and be recognized at Senior Awards Night for successfully completing a five unit sequence in art.

4+1 Pathway to Graduation:
Should one (or more) of these art courses consist of the successful completion of AP Studio in Art (see below for description) students will have met the requirements for New York State’s approved Visual Arts Pathway. They may also earn collegiate credit from the institution they plan to attend.
