Art Program Of City Scliools Is
Designed To Help All Pupils
And Is Noi Restricted To A Few
By The Steering Committee
“The art experience promotes
'a mans for developing a f{reer
‘and happier person in a freer and
happier world.”
The, art program of the Athens
City Bchools is not designed for
the talented few but is for all
the children. Each chilg is given
freedom in expressing himself
and also freedom to choose his
own media for self expression.
Every effort is made to make
ait a part of the child’s every day
life, to stimulate the experience
of creating and to help him to
improve the manner in which he
creates. Emphasis is on individual
interpretations and indiwvidual re
actions. . ¥:
The art program As evaluated
from time to time to assure a
balanced program as to media
and problems. Crayons, water
colors, tempera modgling clay (lo
cal), and charcoai are among the
media used. Sketching trips, sto
ries and poems read by the teach-‘
er, recording and oilbpr music
are sources of inspiration for
creative expression. When art
can be integrated with other
etudies it is permitted but not
encouraged and usually is con
gidered a part of subject illustra
ted and not an art experience.
Very little attention is paid to
gkill in drawing and painting as;
such. The pupils are encouraged
tc go ahead on their own power
and receive instruction on prob
lems - only when they sense the
irouble themselves and reques or
really appear to need help. 1
The Art Period ;
Art has a definite place of its
own in the schoo! curriculum. It
is not a “handmaiden” to other
B s
tions.
Bobby Marbut and Alvin Tal
ley have entered the picture con
test from our room. We hope
they will have happy results.
We were delighted {0 see the
sup come out and Physical Edu
cation can be alive again for
both boys and girls. The girls
have new pennies for different
colors to tell which team they
are on.

school subjects but is taught for
art’s sake. The weekly schedule
of the school program provides
for the art period. The art period
is flexible as to placement in the
school @ay or the school week. It
is long enough to provide for the
distribution of materials, for giv
ing the child time to develop
something he feels is worthwhile
and for putting away materials at
the end of the period.
Art Teachers
Teachers in the schools who
have hagq special art training or
have majored in art assist in di
recting and stimulating the art
work of the school. A large num
ber of teachers have had courses
in art so are able to carry on
their own art work. It was the
happy privilege of all the Ele
mentary Teachers to have work
this year in the Art Department
at the University of Georgia. The
teachers received excellent in
struction and had interesting art
experiences under the direction
of the Art Department Staff.
. Critics
Children criticize the work of
{fellow students in their classes or
school and seek to evaluate their
own work., Selecteq pitcures are
exhibited in the class room or
given prominent places on,bulle
tin boards. The works of the
masters of all periods are stu-!
died by means of slides and
prints. The puipls learn some-l
thing of the backgrounds of thesc‘
artists which often helps them to‘
understand and. appreciate the
works of the artists studied. ‘
They are never told what to
like or dislike when receiving
their own work, the work of their
fellow students or of the masters,
but are free to express their own
reactions. Pupils are reminded
that the masters started from
humble beginning and learned
their art step by step.
Exhibits
The Athens City Schools have
submitted paintings to the Geor
gia Student Art Exhibition since
is beginning. A good percentage
of pictures have been accepted.
These pictures are shown. in
schools throughout the state.
Children’s pictures have been ex
hibited in the Public Library:from
time to time. The art of the

We had a gooq Valentine party
last week. We made a pretty Val
entine box. It was red and white
with ruffles on it. There were Val
entines for everybody. Jo Ann
Heys brought some good candy for
us and Miss Morris gave us little
Valentine baskets filled with
mints. The party was fun.
We have a new ~itizenship
chdrt In it is a window for each
of us. Our pictures are inside the
windows. When one is a good cit
izen, his window is open wide:
when he is a bad citizen, it i¢
closed. We made our own Cciti
zenship rules; and we are trying
to keep all our windows open.
Many people in our class have
been sick and out of school. All
of them are back now though, ex~
cept Patsy Ann Beck. We hope
she can soon be back. We miss
her.
Miss Nisbet’s Class
In English we have been study

STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION
Assets increased more than $20,000,000 in 1947
" and now total $199,857,286. Surplus, Capital and
Contingency Reserves total $23,500,000, a new
high mark in additional funds for policyholders’
protection, :
BENEFITS PAID
Payments to policyholders and beneficiaries aggre
gated $8,664,444 in 1947, bringing total payments
since organization in 1907 to more than $167,700,000.

At the close of 1947 Jefferson Standard made sev
eral new policy plans available to the public, in
cluding a wide range of policies for children.
