Guidepost Academy - Curriculum & More Info Booklet

Fine Arts: Drawing as Creative Practice We study art to gain a deeper appreciation for the world around us. Studying art changes how we look, how we listen, how we appreciate sensory input and the meaning it has for us. Art, at ATI, is partially in formal art classes where we study with professionals in the field. It is also integrated into the fabric of the curriculum and the community. Every subject offers opportunities to fuel creativity: from the study of Islamic tile techniques in geometry, to the understanding of proportions in the petals of a flower in botany or the skeletal system in human anatomy.
