简短的历史
Formal Art courses came to Curley in 1992 with retired 巴尔的摩 County Public School teacher, Mr. William (Bill) Roth. A graduate of Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), Mr. Roth taught Art at Patapsco High School for 30 years before using his extensive knowledge of Art and 摄影 to draft a fresh curriculum for Curley. Building upon this strong arts tradition, a newly constructed, state of the art 美术 wing, 的 Holthaus Center, was dedicated in 2010. Course offerings grew to include digital art courses, and AP Art was introduced in 2015 under the direction of current 视觉艺术s instructor Mr. 马克D. Halcott 97. Curley is constantly refining our 视觉艺术s program to reflect the skills and perspectives necessary for success in the 21st century.
