At Ascent Classical Academy of Grand Junction(ACAGJ), teachers create their lessons within the framework set by our content-rich curriculum in collaboration with colleagues and in partnership with Hillsdale College's Barney Charter School Initiative. Teachers are dedicated to mastering the key elements of their instruction and to their students' intellectual and moral betterment. Ascent Classical Academy Charter Schools teachers take seriously their moral and intellectual improvement as part of a hard-working, supportive, and excellence-driven culture.
ACAGJ is seeking Art teachers for the school year.
Art is an important aspect of classical education. Studying art is not the first step in cultivating skill; rather, it is the cultivation of knowledge and appreciation for skill, especially as observed in the best examples of it. The purpose of the art class is the apprehension of beauty, specifically as it is found in great works of art. We want our students to see things that are beautiful, to understand them (at least in part), and to be appropriately moved by them. Teaching students the skill or craft involved in composing such works is secondary, in order of both time and priority, within our integrated course of study. Art teachers at Ascent are expected to help students consider beauty properly through developing intellectual tools of the discipline such as the fundamentals of composition, the elements of art, as well as context and craft.
