Students Honored with 2024 Arts Proficiency Seal

Students Honored with 2024 Arts Proficiency Seal

The Arizona Department of Education has recently recognized the excellence of high school graduates who have excelled in a particular area of study with its Seals program. The highly coveted Arts Proficiency Seal is awarded to students who have achieved academic excellence in arts education and have completed a rigorous set of extracurricular activities and a Capstone project.

To earn the Arts Proficiency Seal, student artists must first complete four credits worth of qualifying arts courses while maintaining a minimum of 3.0 GPA, showcasing their consistent, outstanding academic performance.

Students are also required to engage in at least 80 hours of extracurricular activities in the arts fields. These activities allow them to gain practical experience, develop their creative thinking skills, and enrich their art history and cultural knowledge.

The most challenging component of the Arts Seal program, the Capstone project, serves as the final showcase of students' skills and achievements in the field of arts. This public exhibition of original artwork aims to demonstrate their ability to synthesize a wide range of artistic techniques and styles. The Capstone project also provides a fantastic opportunity for students to present their work to a broader audience and receive feedback as well as recognition.

All five PVSchools high schools have students receiving this distinguished honor.

The Arts Seal program has recognized high school student's academic excellence in art education and inspired and encouraged them to explore their artistic talents, gain practical experience, and develop their creative skills. The program has demonstrated that art education is a valuable and essential part of high school curricula, a field that requires students' hard work, discipline, and dedication.

PVSchools is very proud of these 86 individuals as well as their instructors!
