The Montgomery County Public School Art Program is aligned with National and State Art Education Standards.
The effects of the art program does not end in the classroom, but extends into the personal and academic development of each student. Students also develop the ability to concentrate, consider various points of view, problem solve, think creatively, work as a member of a team, and persevere in a task.
