The
Chico High School Art Program offers a wide variety of courses and
opportunities for all skill levels. Studio courses range from Ceramics, Studio Art 1, 2 and 3, Creative Arts, and Glass Design. Additionally, Chico High School has one of Northern California's most
advanced Computer Arts labs, offering CTE courses in Digital Arts Exploration, and Digital Arts 1, 2 and 3. Our Art Department was selected as an
Exemplary Art Program by the California Art Education Association for
the 2001-2002 school year.
The Art Department
has worked to create a high-quality, rigorous art program featuring choices and opportunities to maximize student learning and success. Many students have gone on to various fields
that are directly or indirectly related to the skills learned in art program courses. Other students walk away with an appreciation of art and the
value that it adds to all our lives.
