RELIGIOUS EDUCATION “CHRIST AND CULTURE FOR CREATIVE MINDS” (ART FOCUS) HRE2O2
This course both invites and challenges the student to live according to the Gospel message in our culture. Students explore scripture, Church history and modern culture in order to understand what it means to be human. The principles are then developed through the Gospel themes that reveal how Jesus’ Kingdom of God is expressed in all of our relationships: to ourselves, to others, to our civil society, to our Church, and to our Global community. This course has the same content and expectations as HRE2O1, however, students will be actively involved in using the arts to learn about Christ and culture and to demonstrate mastery over the course expectations. Students who choose this course should have a willingness to do activities in one or more of the following arts: music, visual art, drama, or dance.
