Art at Loyal Heights

Loyal Heights is known for it’s halls full of art from the students. Our school is extremely proud to support a full time art teacher, Ms. DiPrima.

ART Vision Statement

At Loyal Heights, K-5 art students engage in interdisciplinary projects to learn the Elements and Principles of Design: Line, Shape, Color, Value, Form, Texture, Space, Balance, Contrast, Emphasis, Movement, Pattern, Rhythm and Unity. These skill sets are scaffolded by grade level to build upon understanding and complexity. 

Art objectives are learned in combination with targeted English language arts, history, math, and social/emotional skills. 

Artists explore different genres, movements and mediums. 

Students practice positive risk-taking; task-based exploration; and both independent and collaborative learning. 

The main focus is for students to gain an independent voice/artistic confidence, as well as, feel like an integral part of our creative community.
