Abstract
This study concerned 50 secondary students in a school art program in a juvenile detention institution. These students were administered a nine-item, five-choice pretest-posttest questionnaire to measure attitude changes toward art and school as a result of a varied, short term art program designed for their needs. The program was structured to be motivational and to insure success for reach individual student. Pupil attitudes toward art and school were found to be more positive in all areas.
