The Visual Art Department of Pleasure Ridge Park High School strives to provide positive arts experiences through quality instruction to students of all levels of ability. By advocating lifelong learning in the arts, we hope to help expand our students’ artistic experiences, skills, understanding and appreciation. Students may major in Visual Art and participate in the Communication, Media, and Arts Career Theme, receiving instruction in studio arts as well as graphic arts; or students may choose Visual Art as an elective. We advocate individual development of attitudes, skills, knowledge, and responsibility essential to self-realization and engagement in school and community.
The Academies of Louisville at Pleasure Ridge Park High School allows students to connect what they are learning in the classroom to the real world through a subject that interests them. The academies offer a new kind of educational experience – a shift from traditional techniques and environments to deeper learning and transition readiness for college, career, and life. Each academy has a dedicated principal, counselor, and a core group of teachers. Every student receives a personalized experience within a supportive environment.
