Our upper school art students have the opportunity to choose from a variety of classes at different levels, including three AP courses. The AP requirement is to produce a sustained investigation by selecting an idea to focus on for the entire year. Students then create a body of work around that idea. We are so impressed by the highly refined skills and creativity that our art students develop throughout their years at TSS. Our AP students are taught by Mrs. Wood, who is also an AP Reader with responsibility for grading AP art portfolios from other students across the country. A role which gives her an opportunity to gain insights and ideas to enrich her classes at The Salisbury School. #godragons🐉 
In 5th through 8th grade art, TSS students continue to use the elements and principles of art while exploring drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, and printmaking each year.

The middle school GAD project choices were embroidery, wood carved dragons, paintings after David Hockney, or functional clay teapots. Thank you to our art teachers for their instruction, guidance, and support as each student develops their skills year on year.#godragons🐉

Sixth-grade science has been learning about our solar system and galaxy. To gain a better understanding of the distances between planets and the sun, the students used scaled models of the planets and measured proportionate distances between them until they reached Neptune. Once they were almost 600 feet away they could look back to try to find Earth which was the size of a very small dot! Students finished the unit by creating children's books, travel brochures, or astronaut diaries which detailed the facts they had learned over the course of study and reading their books to the Kindergarten class. Great job, everyone!
