Abstract
This paper describes the design and implementation of an educational model for high school, designed to enhance students' self-esteem and enable them to have confidence in their art. This model for art education is based Abraham Tessa's self-evaluation maintenance model. The implementation of this model in a high school over nine years, from the experimental first stage model to the revised model which incorporates self-evaluation based on interaction with the community, is discussed. The results showed that students, who were reluctant to display their works of art immediately after they entered high school, became confident to display their works of art both within their school environment and within the local community, and began to manage exhibitions independently.
