Creative and artistic expression abounds in St. Patrick’s Art Program.  The study of art is based on the belief that every child is creative and that creativity is a characteristic of all learning.

      Saint Patrick School offers art classes to all students, grades kindergarten through eighth, once per week.

      The art curriculum is based on the elements and principles of design, such as learning to use color, shape, form, line, or texture in expressing an idea or feeling.  Learning techniques and using a variety of media (pen & ink, watercolor, temper paints, clay, paper collage, etc.) are an important part of the curriculum.  The art program at Saint Patrick School reflects both the Ohio and national art standards.

      All students on every grade level are involved in projects that develop self-expression, creativity, visual perception, manipulative skills, and critical thinking skills.  Students work independently as well as in cooperative groups.

      A walk through the hallways and classrooms tells the story of a dynamic art program—prints, collages, self-portraits, drawings, and paintings adorn the walls and display cabinets.
