Music
Music is a natural form of expression in the development of children and should be an integral part of the school curriculum from preschool throughout high school. The music program has aesthetic, creative, cultural, and academic values that complete and further the educational and social values of a quality education. The school is responsible for helping all children understand and enjoy music. It should assist in discovering and nurturing musical talent. Every child should have the opportunity to develop their potentiality for musical expression through exploration, experimentation, exposure, and enrichment.
The study and playing of a musical instrument and vocal training, whether alone or in a group, offers the young person a lifelong enjoyment and appreciation of music. This might be attained through creating, performing, or eventually, just as an educated listener. The pursuance of music, one of the Fine Arts, leads to deeper understanding and love for the other Fine Arts. This ability to value the aesthetic to a higher degree raises the joy of living and offers the person a foundation to become happy, well-adjusted, and useful cooperative citizen
Visual Arts
The Visual Arts Department integrates the Eagle Pass School District mission statement, the National Standards for Arts Education and the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills to enrich, enhance and empower the students’ artistic modes of thinking and being to benefit both the students’ lives and society.
The Visual Art program goals support preparation to live in the 21st century by providing experiences that assist students as they:
-
Better understand human experience, both past and present.
-
Learn to adapt to and respect others’ (often very different) ways of thinking, working, and expressing themselves.
-
Learn artistic modes of problem solving, which bring an array of expressive, analytical, and developmental tools to every human situation.
-
Better understand the influences of the arts, for example in their power to create and reflect cultures, in the impact of design on virtually all we use in daily life, and in the interdependence of work in the arts with the broader worlds of ideas and action.
-
Make decisions where there are no standard answers.
-
Analyze nonverbal communication and make informed judgments about cultural products and issues.
-
Communicate their thoughts and feelings in a variety of modes, giving them a vastly more powerful repertoire of self-expression.
