To clear up any confusion, here are the lists of students and the days they are expected to attend After School Art:

At Mayo, if a student chooses to participate in band, they are unable to take Art as a class during the school day. Thus, Art Club was created to give those students an opportunity to experience art while still being involved in band.
I've decided to change the name to After School Art because that's what it is - a continued period of the day after school hours. After School Art students create the same projects and learn the same material as the Art Class students, they just don't have time to fit it in their daily schedules. I hope to someday also have an Art Club - members of whom would help me with tasks or projects around the school (art displays, preparing for art shows, painting play sets, etc.) But for now, my goal is to integrate Art into the curriculum as a mandated core subject. In order to reach everyone, After School Art is a must. Thankfully, I've had loads of students sign up for After School Art! With that said, the group is too large to have in my art room at one time. As a result, I am splitting the class in two. One section will meet on Tuesdays, the other on Wednesdays. Both classes will go until 4pm, as per usual. Please email me with any questions, concerns, or ways to integrate art into the curriculum! Respectfully, Miss Arp [email protected] Students are learning and practicing the 7 Elements of Design. The first element we learned about was line. Students chose two colors of construction paper, traced their hand and drew lines to form sections across their paper. Then they used Sharpies to fill in the spaces with a variety of lines and patterns. To display their work, I tied it together with a quote by American artist Keith Haring, "Art is for everyone" and hung them above the office in the main hall of the school!

Art Room Rules:1. Treat all humans, projects, and supplies with respect. 2. Always be mindful and well-informed, practicing safety at all times. 3. Give your best effort on every project. 4. Communicate, use integrity and practice teamwork skills. 5. Take pride in yourself, your projects, and Mayo Middle School. Dismissal from Art:Though art is in the form of an elective class at Mayo, each student will still receive a grade based on their projects, effort, and behavior. Students are required to follow my Art Room Rules (see above). Refusal to do so, earning more than 3 Strikes, or in the event of failing any other subject for 3 consecutive weeks, will result in dismissal from Art Class/Art Club. (There will be no grade for Art Club, as it is after school hours).
