"The art studio is a place where our students reflect on their world with an open mind and a fresh vision. They're using different kinds of tools to communicate their ideas as they learn to appreciate the significance of sharing their point of view with others through art."
—Julia Lothrop, Visual Arts Faculty Member

At Dexter Southfield, we pride ourselves on the strength of student-teacher relationships, which is why most faculty members coach one or more seasons. It gives both students and teachers the opportunity to get to know one another on multiple levels. This relational model improves communication, mentoring and trust.
