In addition to the classroom curriculum, Coe also offers various enrichment opportunities in visual arts.
Coe hosts the Northwest Art Project. This opportunity brings original works of art, on loan from Junior League of Seattle, to our students, giving them the amazing opportunity to get up close and interact with works of art.
Coe is dedicated to providing consistent and comprehensive arts education to all students. The Creative Advantage is a Seattle Public Schools arts plan that establishes partnerships with local artists to enrich student learning. We are finding opportunities to bring artists in residence to work with students to enhance engagement by integrating arts with other core content in their classrooms.
The visual arts teacher also offers a rotating schedule of after-school art programs for students focusing on painting, drawing, clay, sculpture, and more.
