Our academy is a highly specialized therapeutic day school setting that services students who have a social, emotional or behavioral impairment. Our students truly enjoy creative activities, and this seems to be a very therapeutic outlet for them. With quality art materials, students can construct meaningful pieces that reflect each individual's vision. Appropriate paints, markers, paintbrushes, papers, and craft materials will enable pupils to utilize various mediums for self-expression. Our students deal with very intense issues on a daily basis. Pablo Picasso sums up my beliefs with the following quote; "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
