Independence Middle School has 430 students in grades 6, 7, and 8.  The majority of these students are involved in the IMS art program. 

The students at IMS are introduced to the fundamentals of art through various tools and materials in a variety of creative activities.  These activities help develop skills in observation, exploration, and in decision making.  At the same time, the students are encouraged to try to achieve a higher potential level in their artistic abilities.  Original and creative thinking and expression are encouraged within the students.

An introduction to art appreciation is included in the IMS art curriculum.  This allows the students to understand and identify some of the major works of art and artists and their influence.
