New Jersey Core Curriculum Standards (http://www.state.nj.us/education/cccs/cccs.pdf) Standard 1 mandates that the School District offer education in the visual and performing arts.
I instruct a creative group of students in the visual arts. I have selected these sites for you to further your study of art in various media and also to just view the aesthetic value of a piece of art.
Please note Art is, often times, a matter of personal preference. While the following sites are familiar to educators, BES can't guarantee that the contents of these links will be consistent with individual family standards. We encourage parents to check sites prior to their children visiting them.
If you have any questions I can be reached at dangus@belvideresd.org or 475-4001 ext 7700.
