PRESENTATION: SUZETTE MORROW, ART EDUCATION
Superintendent, Vicki Schumacher, introduced our speaker explaining that Suzette teaches art at both the high school and middle school and consults with the grammar school. Coast Unified is very lucky to have someone of Suzette’s caliber.
Suzette explained that Coast Union High School offers two Career Technology and Education Pathways (CTE): Arts, Multimedia, and Entertainment and Agriculture and
Natural Resources. In addition to the core academic curriculum provided by Coast Union, students can choose to enroll in a College and Career Pathway. Each pathway is a sequence of three courses, out of the 32 courses required for graduation. The benefits of the pathway include courses that are all California State University/University of California approved, an opportunity to earn industry certifications for employment, and membership in a national student leadership organization.
Students are encouraged to participate in community service projects such as the Youth Art Show, a juried art show in which students in grades 3-11 participate. Everyone is encouraged to attend the show which is held during the month of March at the Coast Unified District Office.
President Mike thanked Suzette for a great presentation and presented her with a plaque
