As budget cuts continue to impact K-12 education programs in the United States, many students are finding themselves with increasingly limited art and music course options.

Such limited course options not only makes it difficult for students to feed their unique creative interests, but it also makes it challenging for students to prepare professional portfolios to use for college or careers. Artsugi works with industry professionals from the creative sectors to offer students a wide variety of art and music courses designed to prepare them for various college and career pathways.

Additionally, unlike online course providers that focus on adult learners, Artsugi's courses have been designed specifically with high school students in mind. All our courses are aligned with the National Visual Arts Standards (NVAS) or National Media Arts Standards (NMAS), as well as with Career Technology Education (CTE) standards for various states (*).

This means students could either take Artsugi courses as part of a high school program for credit, or else they can complete these courses on their own, outside of school. All Artsugi courses can be "blended" or else done completely online, which gives students the option to learn anytime and anywhere.

(*) If you need Artsugi courses to be adapted to the CTE standards in your specific state, please contact us. Additionally, if you are interested in certain courses that we currently do not offer, please contact us to let us know. We are always open to feedback!
