Art at North Colonie

“The arts teach students that creating a quality product, such as a performance or a piece of art, requires sustained effort, discipline and study. Students learn that hard work and delayed gratification are essential to success, and they carry this important ethic into the workplace.” “Arts education helps students learn to deal creatively with complexity and ambiguity and to analyze a variety of approaches to problems. These types of thinking skills are required for successful careers in medicine, law, research, and business.”
