Welcome!
Welcome to the Grosse Ile High School Advanced Placement Art History/Humanities 10-12 web site. This is a site meant to aid students by providing links to descriptions of the course and its students, the assignments, course expectations, and related material of interest. Students and parents are strongly encouraged to familiarize themselves with this site and its contents, and to use it as a reference in the course of the school year. In addition, a link above leads to the GIHS AP Mailing List, a Yahoo Groups discussion list through which students may communicate with each other, with their teacher, and also with alumni of the AP Humanities and AP English courses at Grosse Ile High School. Visitors to this page and others are cordially reminded that the District's policies for internet use are in effect here in regard to all behavior and communications related to this site.
Update: July 21, 2006
Welcome! This is the first working draft of the new AP Art History/Humanities resource site. Thanks to the generosity and hard work of our District LAN Technician, Mrs. Denise Libkie, we now have a presence on the web and a place to turn for information and additional, supplementary sources related to the material of the course. Keep posted for updates and fresh links to internet resources.
A Friendly Reminder
Students who have been accepted into AP Art History/Humanities must complete a written summer assignment by the start of school. An in-depth discussion of the material will follow during the first days of the school year. Students who have not completed the summer assignment will be required to drop AP Art History/Humanities and select another course.
How He Spent His Summer Vacation
Mr. Loselle spent six weeks of this year's very long summer vacation teaching at the Interlochen Arts Camp. Located just south of Traverse City, Michigan, IAC is the oldest, largest and most famous summer arts program in the country. Your teacher was once a high school student there (yes, he was once in high school!), and has spent 15 years on the IAC staff, all told. Several GIHS student have also attended the camp in recent years. If you are interested in learning more about Interlochen, please see Mr. Loselle.
