Where am I?
Welcome to the KHS Art Department Website!
KHS art department works hard to help the students gain an appreciation for the arts. We build higher level thinking skills and hand eye coordination through different media and studying art history. Students are encouraged to express themselves through their work and critiques. We look forward to a wonderful year full of growth.
