Ichabod Crane Art Department

The Ichabod Crane District-wide Art Department offers the students a solid program and a wide range of experiences. This is accomplished by six dedicated art professionals who service the entire district.

In the elementary art program, there is collaboration with the library and classroom teachers to offer meaningful experiences relevant to classroom work such as tessellations for math. Art and science link with posters carefully crafted under the guidance of the art teacher. Studens also visit museums for enrichment.

The middle school art program includes an after-school art club for students who are not involved in other activities and enjoy creating, experimenting, and improving their work.

High school art students are offered a variety of classes and many different experiences in art. Outside of school, the art students participate in approximately seven shows per year, including juried exhibitions. Students also enjoy an after-school art club which is active in community service, personal portfolios, and field trips.

Ichabod Crane student portfolio are competitive. Our students have attended top art schools such as Rhode Island School of Design, New York School of Visual Arts, Pratt, FIT, and Massachusetts College of Arts to name a few. Graduates of ICC are now working in the fields of fine arts, art history, industrial design, fashion window display, textile design, graphic arts, film, children's book illustration, art education, and art therapy.
